Strong Medicine - Angela Meadon

♥♥♥♥

What a book! At first I was sceptical about the subject matter, I really didn’t think it would be my cup of tea, as I usually don’t go for horror or thrillers, but it got me.

From the moment I started reading I couldn’t put it down.

It follows Erin, whose daughter was kidnapped for Muti, her struggles to get her daughter back and get the police to listen to her. Realising that the police wasn’t going to be any help because they were corrupt, she slowly started looking for clues to save her daughter.

I was chewing my nails, feeling Erin’s anguish at finding her daughter, the suspense was nerve wrecking and even more so when you realise that this is a thing in South Africa, this is real.

Fantastically written and the characters are well rounded, a must read for all thriller lovers!

Why You were Taken – J.T. Lawrence

♥♥♥♥

I have to admit it took me a while to get into the book, but boy once you get sucked into the plot you get lost and follow Kirsten in her discovery that she wasn’t her parent’s biological child.

The book is set in a future South Africa, 2021, you follow Kirsten and her friend Keke’s journey, as they uncover cryptic information. The two uncover more as they dig deeper and find out that Kirsten’s parents were actually her abductors, and that she has a twin.

The way the author connects all the different stories is amazing, as every story line has a purpose. The characters are likeable and you want them to survive. She also uses situations from current life in South Africa that makes this book relatable.

Definitely a must read!
