Home
Genre:
romance, new
adult, literature and fiction, contemporary fiction,
Synopsis:
Alexa Clausen has never fallen. She’s never soared. She’s lived her
entire life floating midway between passion and despondency, never experiencing
those extremes. But all it takes is one evening with Adam Westbrook to draw her
out of her shell, to leave her feeling bold for the first time ever. He is
fiery and magnetic. He is gravitational, that inescapable pull no one can
avoid. After a few chance encounters, Alexa finally accepts that she can’t stay
away, can’t deny the electricity she feels every time he comes around. But as the intensity between them deepens, she also can’t avoid the
subtle hints that Adam is hiding something. His wide smile and radiant eyes
obscure some burning secret, some detail of his past that resurfaces to steal
his joy. The farther Alexa falls, the more she realizes just how little she
really knows about Adam and how far he is willing to go to cover up the truth. Calm
Like Home is a story about love and longing, growth and stagnation, discovering
one’s counterpart but losing oneself, and ultimately finding that one person
who truly has the power to change everything.
Review:
This book was really good and it was easy to get in to and l found it really
enjoyable and it was a great read and it was hard to put down once l started
reading it and l was sent this book for review. I am a fan of contemporary
fiction but even if it was not in one of my favourite genre l would still have
read it because it’s good to read different books and genre it is good to go
outside your comfort zone when it comes to books and genre. It is good to try
something new and improved your reading to different types of books and genre
and authors. I would highly recommend this book to anybody because everybody
should try something new and go outside their comfort zone when it comes to
reading and l gone outside my own comfort zone and l am really glad l did.

About
the author: Haydn Wilks was born in Caerphilly
in 1987. After graduating from King's College London, he worked a succession of
call centre and sales jobs before moving to Seoul, South Korea. His writing
mixes the local and the global, throwing together a wide range of characters
from across the inter-connected modern world. It features moments of comedy,
often dark, alongside sudden violent outbursts. Influences include Tarantino movies, Twin Town, Chuck Palahniuk, Bret
Easton Ellis, Murakami, Kerouac, Dostoevsky & Joyce. Music features heavily
in his work, from Manic Street Preachers, Exit International & the
explosive Welsh underground scene, to northern indie like The Smiths, Joy
Division & Arctic Monkeys, along with hip-hop, house, dubstep, '80s pop,
K-pop, etc., etc.
'The Death of Danny Daggers', his debut novel,
throws these influences into a cocktail with a high alcohol content, a few
spoonfuls of ketamine & M-Kat, and a big dollop of good old-fashioned
ultraviolence.Americosis' is a genre-bending mash-up of sci-fi, horror,
thriller & dark comedy. It might all be madness. It might be the apocalypse.
