Kelly’s review of The Burning Air by Erin Kelly

TITLE: The Burning Air
AUTHOR: Erin Kelly
PUBLICATION DATE: Feb 21, 2013
ORDER LINKS: Amazon | B&N

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
Of course it was love for my children, love for my son, that caused me to act as I did. It was a lapse of judgement. If I could have foreseen the rippling aftershocks that followed I would have acted differently, but by the time I realised the extent of the consequences, it was too late.

The MacBrides have always gone to Far Barn in Devon for Bonfire Night, but this year everything is different. Lydia, the matriarch, is dead; Sophie, the eldest daughter, is desperately trying to repair a crumbling marriage; and Felix, the youngest of the family, has brought a girlfriend with him for the first time.

The girl, Kerry, seems odd in a way nobody can quite put their finger on – but when they leave her looking after Sophie’s baby daughter, and return to find both Kerry and the baby gone, they are forced to ask themselves if they have allowed a cuckoo into their nest…

Gripping and chilling, with a killer twist, The Burning Air reaffirms Erin Kelly as one of Britain’s foremost psychological thriller writers.

REVIEW:
I just was not really feeling this book. The storyline idea was good. The writing was good. But there was just something that didn’t grab me and suck me in.

I received a complimentary copy of the book in exchange for an honest review. This review is my own opinion and not a paid review.

    That’s a bummer that you did not get into this book. It happens though, I have had some good luck lately finding a few books that I can’t put down. The latest is by R.S. Guthrie, Blood Land. It’s been a really thrilling read. rsguthrie.com is where you can take a look, I recommend it to anyone looking for a good thriller/mystery. I hope you find a good book soon to “suck you in”! Thanks for the review!
