This one was really dark and not at all what I expected. I guess I imagined it would be more about the gossipy nail salon and dirty little secrets of the "rich and undeserving". That wasn't this book at all. The nail salon owner is not a good or mentally stable person. And those that frequent her place of business or become intertwined in her life have a whole lotta bad stuff happening. For anyone with triggers, this will hit pretty much every one of them. So steer clear if that's an issue. Luckily I don't have many things that are a no go for me (animals being hurt really really bothers me, and there is some of that in here also) so I was able to finish this one.

I enjoyed this book so much. It was fast paced and not what I was expecting. It was really easy to follow and took so really good unexpected turns too.

A pretty good read with quite a few unexpected twists. Some aspects could have been approached with a bit more sensitivity but overall gripping story.

Could not put this down! Plenty of shocks along the way although I thought the gender switch at the end wasn’t necessary as it didn’t add anything to the rest of the story & felt that it wrapped up SUPER quickly at the end.

Well this is a little bit dark isn’t it? And I was all for it. Whilst I didn’t have a clue who was what half the time, I was completely hooked on the plot.

The authors writing style is completely a bit of me, definitely one to recommend to those who aren’t afraid of a bit of darkness.

There are some epic twists, which I for one never saw coming. I do wish that it had of been a bit longer and other characters had been developed more, especially Rob.

Off to read the authors previous book, add this to your TBR now.

Melanie owns a local nail salon and is highly trusted by her customers, who confide in her about their personal lives. This includes matters such as infidelity, financial woes, drug abuse, and more. Despite the sensitive nature of these secrets, Melanie keeps them to herself. However, things take an unexpected turn when the secrets collide, causing deep fractures in the relationships that may never be repaired. The situation becomes even more complicated when a teenage girl goes missing, and DCI Sue Fisher takes up the case. Despite her own problems, she is determined to solve the issue, even if it means facing many shocking twists along the way.

I cannot say more without giving away spoilers. However, I have never encountered a gripping thriller as The Nail Salon. If you are looking for a book that will keep you hooked from the beginning to the end, you should get yourself a copy of The Nail Salon. I recommend that you switch off your phone and settle down in a comfortable chair because you won't be able to put the book down once you start reading it. I am eagerly looking forward to reading the author's next book. I give The Nail Salon 5 stars.

If you like twisted plots that keep you guessing and compel you to keep reading, then The Nail Salon has to be one of your next reads.

It's original, dark and delicious fun to read.

Wow, so many twists and turns, I was quite dizzy by the end. Just when you think you know what's going on, you don't. A really good read, something to lose yourself in on a rainy day.

A hooked from the start, page turner of a story! This was not at all the read I expected. There are many stories that emerge though the different characters that are full of secrets. I LOVED IT!!!

A brilliant read and one I really enjoyed. The characters are loveable and varied, the plot is one that is engaging and medium paced. I found myself completely drawn into the story and enjoyed the writing style.

If you are a fan of psychological thrillers then get this pre-ordered, I binge-read this book as I was desperate to find out what was happening.

The author brilliantly tackles some sensitive topics throughout the storyline so please be warned there are some triggers throughout. However, this is a very clever crime thriller as you are fully aware of the who instead you are taken on a journey of the why and how which is explored brilliantly. I certainly look forward to more from the author in the future.

Thanks to netgalley for the chance to read this book.

My first book by this author and it didn’t disappoint.

Just outside London a innocent teenage girl goes missing and DCI Sue Fisher and her team start to investigate. Everything looks perfect on the outside but as Sue and her team start to dig for answers secrets and lies are revealed.

A good plot with some twists and turns but it does have some dark elements.
Many thanks to Harpercollins UK and to Netgalley for providing me with a galley in exchange for my honest opinion.

Well this book went somewhere I wasn’t expecting in a read and is a really dark thriller that just shows you can’t trust anyone. I will not spoil anything with spoilers on this one but just take it from me spilling all the tea with the person doing your nails is a very bad idea. Enough said. Don’t miss this it’s dark and twisted and perfect for crime lovers.

This one definitely came as a surprise to me! I didn't know what to expect coming in but I will say I enjoyed the storyline. It wasn't a book that made me want to keep on reading it but overall an entertaining read!

My thanks to NetGalley and Harper Collins Publishing for a copy of “ The Nail Salon” for an honest review .

When I started reading this I’d anticipated a different sort of book , more of a domestic , light read.
It’s definitely not that , with dark themes and many twists and turns along the way
Well written characters and a gripping storyline made this a must read book !
