I created the Friday Book Share Game to help search for that ideal novel/author.
Anyone can have a go – all you need to do is answer the following questions based on a book you enjoyed reading (old or new) and use the hashtag #FridayBookShare – Simples!
First line of the book.
Recruit fans by adding the book blurb.
Introduce the main character using only three words.
Delightful design (add the cover image of the book).
Audience appeal (who would enjoy reading this book?)
Your favourite line/scene.
Here’s mine:
With Halloween fast approaching, it’s the perfect time to be reading horror, crime, or mythology. I’m sharing a favourite of mine today, Drive by Mark West. It might be a crime novella but it’s hauntingly terrifying!
First line – David Moore finally managed to get away from the drunk in the lounge and weaved his way through the other party-goers to the hall.
Recruit fans by adding the book blurb –
David Moore has one night left in Gaffney and is at a party he doesn’t want to attend. Natasha Turner, at the same party, is lost for a lift home.
Meanwhile, three young men have stolen a car, and as the night darkens and the roads become deserted, David and Nat enter into a terrifying game of cat-and-mouse. . .
Introduce the main character – David is sensible, brave, and chivalrous.
Delightful Design –
Audience appeal – Perfect choice for fans of psychological thrillers, crime, and horror.
Your favourite line/scene –
Nat felt the fight drain out of her. She knew she had to stay strong, had to keep fighting, but she didn’t have the energy, even though the alternative was too awful to think of.
‘Why are you doing this, what have I ever done to you?’
BUY a copy of Drive from Amazon UK or Amazon US

Just downloaded on your recommendation – #FBS works!!!!
Got it on Kindle Unlimited, though I don’t know that I’d have bought it. <<<<<<why every writer should have their books on KU!!!
