Strong from the Heart by Jon LandMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
A first-class thriller with perfect pacing...
Strong from the Heart: A Caitlin Strong Novel (Caitlin Strong Novels Book 11) by Jon Land is a superbly written and richly descriptive novel with brilliantly drawn characters and settings. It was a captivating read that had me immersed from the beginning. The story flowed from scene to scene with ease, and the author shows exceptional ability when it comes to storytelling.
I enjoyed the story, character development, and dialogue. There were plenty of plot twists that I didn’t see coming and that added to the book’s mystique. When I stopped reading to work, I found myself wondering what happened in the book, and replaying parts of the novel in my head to see if I could figure more out. It has been a while since I enjoyed a book this much. It’s a first-class thriller with perfect pacing.
There’s no doubt that Strong from the Heart is an exceptionally well written book. The contrast between tone and content is a characteristic talent of only a few authors. The author pays as much attention to his sentences as he does to his plots, shifting or consolidating meaning with the use of a single word. His writing is impeccably honed, full of juxtapositions and qualifications that help to create a suspenseful atmosphere throughout. Highly recommended. I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.
