"“The Swell” is not only the title of Allie Reynold’s newest book but it also describes this book to a TEE!! <br/><br/><br/>I started it and as it slowly began to SWELL with momentum I was flipping pages like a madwoman and I was thinking…Five star read!<br/><br/>The reader has been clued into the probable killer and can’t wait to see why or what or who is making them do such things! <br/><br/>Very suspenseful with short succinct chapters that kept me glued to the book. <br/><br/><br/>….then here comes the CRASH<br/><br/>I typically try not to judge a book just by the ending, but this one did disappoint me. That was too big of a wave and it just fell flat for me and it left me hanging. <br/><br/>It also could possibly leave an opening for the author to continue the story for a book two?!?! I can only hope I’m correct.<br/><br/><br/>"
