ALONE IN THE DARK
Joanne Ryan
I am so thankful to be a part of promoting ALONE IN THE DARK by Joanne Ryan. ALONE IN THE DARK was released earlier this year and it deserves more attention than it got. With only 55 ratings to date on Goodreads, this book is my UNDER THE RADAR BOOKS pick of the month.
Let’s get into what I liked about it and why it got one less star than it should have. It’s probably all my fault.
Her favorite time to run is when she’s ALONE IN THE DARK. On one such night, she stumbles upon something that will alter her course and change her life forever.
What she sees that night is almost too strange to believe and soon those very beliefs come into question in Joanne Ryan’s ALONE IN THE DARK.
I enjoyed my time reading. The writing was good and easy to read. I liked the carriage of the story, but it really had an unsatisfying plot. Not much here to surprise you, nothing here is going to blow your mind. It unwound just the way I thought it would. I think the problem might have been that it was too simple.
I gave it four stars, but it easily could’ve gotten five, if it had not been so straightforward. If all the roads didn’t lead to the same place, the ride would have been more interesting. I do not remember there being any false leads or any red herrings. Everything mentioned had a point. And instead of filtering through clues to solve the mystery everything was laid out in front of you for the taking.
I imagine if you hadn’t read 1000 thrillers like I have, you’d have had a more rewarding experience. I read it in one sitting, and I can’t imagine if I had put it down, that there would be anything calling me back to the story.
One thing, but it’s a big deal for me as a reader. I recommend this title wholeheartedly with one major caveat, don’t expect your mind to be blown, don’t put it in a perilous position on your TBR, position it wisely and you’ll be golden.
ALONE IN THE DARK is on Kindle Unlimited and available where books are sold. If you decide to pick it up, come back here, and let’s talk about it.
Thanks to Joanne Ryan, Rachel’s Random Resources, Netgalley, and Boldwood Books for inviting me to be a part of this tour and for the opportunity to provide feedback!
