All The Lovely Pieces
Have you ever read a book that hooked you from page one and didnβt let go?
I donβt mean you letting go of the book, but the book not letting go of you? As if the book grew arms that grabbed you by the collar, forced you to sit down and turn the page. Well, thatβs precisely what Iβm dealing with in this fabulous recommendation of a read βAll The Lovely Piecesβ by J. M. Winchester. I donβt want to know what happens next because I canβt bear the truth and I have to know what happens next because I canβt bear the suspense.
To top that off, itβs the month of Halloween and Iβm haunted by this read!
What do you do with a book thatβs so gripping?
Turn the page!!
βAll The Lovely Piecesβ is told in three points of view and deals with the psychopath behavior of a wealthy man, Adam Crenshaw, and his demons in a McMansion home of riches. Obsessed with his nanny, Adam clings to the past in a vicious and abusive cycle of mind games, mental trappings and buys his way out sin and sinister behaviors through isolation, alienation and creating self-doubt in each victimβs mind.
But what happens when the victim realizes something is wrong? The wake-up and call to action, of course. But what happens when a powerful man like Adam can track you down and reel you back in? Where can you go? Where can you hide? Can you run? Can you hide?
Can you put down a powerfully written book that has you sitting on the edge? Can you stop rooting for one character and root for the other with the knowledge that theyβre all Adamβs victims and heβs pitted one against the other? You ask yourself if youβre reading a triangle of deceit, a triangle of lies or if youβre reading something that could truly and really happenβ¦ after all money can buy anything and silence almost everything.
What about the confusion children endure in the process? How are they supposed to figure out who is telling the truth and who is spinning lies? Wealth and good fortune always make the front page of newspapers and media and cloud the truth in veils of confusion. Which child-on-the-run would not want to believe that Dad is a billionaire and owns one of the most successful tech companies in the country?
That is precisely the dilemma Iβm caught up in β ‘All The Lovely Pieces’ all on my Kindle. I donβt know which pieces to pick, which to let go and how to solve the jigsaw of a mystery because the story, beautifully written, shows the fragmented psychopath mind. In his attempts to keep his life together, Adam has ripped apart the lives of people he claims to loveβnot that love, empathy or sympathy exists in Adam’s dictionary at all.
Iβm 80% of the way through and canβt wait to find out what happens next, which tells you one thing right off the batβ¦ the author, J. M. Winchester has done a phenomenal job in creating a story that will haunt your thoughts, your imagination and your dreamsβ¦ Can you believe Iβm thinking about Drew, Catherine and Michael as Iβm getting on with my day and when Iβm supposed to be working on my next book? That is the power of Jennifer Winchesterβs writing and story!
So if youβre looking for a good readβno a GREAT readβthen crack open ‘All The Lovely Pieces’ to sail you into the holiday season. Or maybe you wonβt sail into the holiday season with this book because youβll turn the pages at lightening speed and hit THE END before the holidays begin!
Now thatβs what I call a STELLAR read!
What book recently flipped you at lightening speed?
