The Artist: An Explosive, Action-Packed Thrill Ride! by Andrew MackayMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Wow...what a packed novel! This is the fourth edition written for the set 'In Their Shoes', where a journalist takes on the task of shadowing a variety of professionals to experience a day in the life with each one so she can include a record of the happenings of the day with each in her collection. This book follows the satirical nature of the collection to a degree, but it is packed with dark adventure, as well.
What a thrilling ride this was...filled with a few lighter, but mostly darker, moments that will make you stop and think. I enjoyed this novel immensely (it's my favorite of this series so far), and I would recommend this read to any that are interested in dark, thrilling, yet satirical rides when they sit to read. I promise this book turned into an absolute roller coaster, with twists, turns, loops and hills...all being ridden at full speed!
I would highly recommend you start with book 1 of this series, just so you have an idea of where Joy Atwood got her start, and so you are already clued into her present situation when you start this book...but if you don't mind a few minor blanks here and there, it can also be read as a standalone. I promise once you finish it, you'll feel compelled to invest in the rest of the books as well. I received a free copy of this ebook from the author but wanted to voluntarily share my honest review here after I finished reading it (and could finally release the grip on my chair).
