Book Spotlight: The Remains by Vincent Zandri

Due to the lovely snow that seems to have brought the whole of the UK to a standstill this past week, The Remains still hasn't arrived in the post so I couldn't review it for today's review spot, so instead I'm going to post a spotlight for this fantastic sounding book!
Thirty years ago, teenager Rebecca Underhill and her twin sister Molly were abducted by a man who lived in a house in the woods behind their upstate New York farm. They were held inside that house for three horrifying hours, until making their daring escape. Vowing to keep their terrifying experience a secret in order to protect their mother and father, the girls tried to put the past behind them. And when their attacker was hunted down by police and sent to prison, they believed he was as good as dead. Now, it's 30 years later, and with Molly having passed away from cancer, Rebecca, a painter and art teacher, is left alone to bear the burden of a secret that has only gotten heavier and more painful with each passing year. But when Rebecca begins receiving some strange anonymous text messages, she begins to realize that the monster who attacked her all those years ago is not dead after all. He's back, and this time, he wants to do more than just haunt her. He wants her dead.

I do love a good thriller and this one sounds like it's going to be great! So be sure to keep your eyes peeled and come back to check out my review which should be up soon! You can read an excerpt, and watch the book trailer at the website.

Overall ~
I got so busy at the end of November trying to finish stitching my christmas decorations, that the great start to the month came to a complete stand still, which is disappointing. My favourite reads were the Harry Potter books, it was lovely to re-read them. My least favourite was The Fledgling Handbook, although it wasn't bad, I just felt a bit ripped off paying so much for a book that had barely anything in it! I'm not sure how much I'm going to manage to read in December, but I'm hoping to atleast read 5 or so, but I guess it depends how the festive season will go!
