Thin Ice by J.S. MarloMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
I love reading new authors and getting immersed in new series, especially those that are out of what i usually read in genres. Truthfully, until i had the chance to read Thin Ice, i hadn't heard of J.S. Marlo, and boy was it ever a surprise as i read this book. Being the second novel in the series, i was incredibly pleased that i didn't need to read the previous instalment to understand what was going on.
So, i have to say it: i was absolutely impressed with J.S. Marlo. I'm Canadian, speak French and live in the province of Quebec, so to find an author whose knowledge of all three aspects is spot on, is incredibly satisfying. You can't imagine how many times i'll itch to keep quiet on some of the language translations or the particular quirks Canadians have that are simply done wrong. As for the story itself, it was captivating and unexpected as well. More centered on the suspense of Thierry's disappearance, i didn't think it would have been possible to slide a new romance, but J.S. Marlo does it with an amazing talent. I really look forward to reading more from this author and finding out what else she has to offer.
