The blurb:
Love is a riddle waiting to be
solved…
Clued-up career girl Cassy
Brookes has life under control until one disastrous morning changes everything.
When she finds herself stuck in a
doctor’s surgery, a cryptic message left in a crossword magazine sends her on a
search to find the mysterious ‘puzzle-man’ behind it.
Cassy is soon torn between
tracking down her elusive dream guy, and outwitting her nightmare workmate, the
devious Martin.
Facing a puzzling love-life, will
she ever be able to fit the pieces together and discover the truth behind this
enigmatic man?
My Opinion:
*Book provided by the publisher in
exchange for an honest review*
Clever name, great cover,
smart storyline.
The book started in a fab
way, had some exciting moments, but at certain times I was kind of lost and
struggled with the plot.
Let’s start at the beginning
though. The story follows Cassy Brookes, who finds a puzzle book
in a doctor's surgery waiting room. Now she wants to find „puzzle man “. At the
same time, she has to deal with her workmate Martin.
The idea behind this book is really great and I liked the mystery behind
it. Cassy’s journey to find puzzle man is full of adventure, ups and downs and
excitement. I really loved following her around. I really adored her friend
Dan, probably my favourite character in this book. Another character I really
Liked was Martin, had added some extra spark to the story. They all had their
own story shared in a way and some other characters too, a lot of sub-plots,
but included in a clever way.
I felt that after a certain time her mission of finding THE man took
over her life a bit too much.
Rachael Featherstone’s writing has a witty humour, is refreshing and
just so much fun.
My fave thing about the book: The mentions of the different DLR stations, I always take it coming from the airport, so I know them all.
