MY REVIEW
    This is book two in the Jeb Patrick series. I remember book one was amazing. I wasn’t as thrilled with this book because to me it just seemed like more of the same.
  They are running and hiding, but get caught, go through horrible tests, try to escape, get shot at and finally at the end they are all together as a family. I like this kind of book if it happens in one book, but not if it keeps happening with the outcome the same.
  It’s a good suspenseful book, but to much of the same kind of suspense.
    If you didn’t read book one it is O.K. to read this book. It is good as a stand alone, but you get more out of it if you read book one.

MY REVIEW
  Centralia by Mike Dellosso is one of my favorite books of the year. It only took me two days to read and that’s fast for me. Centralia is a thrilling book full of suspense. You never know what will happen next. Each chapter, almost every page has something new happening. If you like to guess what will happen next in a book you will never be able to in Centralia.
  Centralia is a real place. Centralia is a borough and a near-ghost town in Columbia County, Pennsylvania, United States. Its population has dwindled from over 1,000 residents in 1981 to 10 in 2010[2] as a result of the Centralia mine fire that has been burning beneath the borough since 1962. Centralia is the least-populated municipality in Pennsylvania.
  In the novel Peter doesn’t believe his wife and daughter are dead and then he finds a message from his daughter in the back tank of the toilet. So the search begins, but there are so many things that happen that you will be on the edge of your seat.
  This is an amazing book and you will love it. You won’t believe the things that happen. I highly recommend Centralia and know you will love it. Fantastic job Mike Dellosso.

  Very short story that I enjoyed very much. I sort of thought it would end this way but, it also held surprises for me.  I like the way the authors wove this story together and makes you think something that isn’t true.
Very clever and interesting book. You will enjoy it very much. I recommend it for the story line and the ending.

Mike lives with his wife and four daughters in southern Pennsylvania. He's not afraid to admit that the woods of northern Maryland freak him out.





MY REVIEW
  The Last Hunt-a short story by Mike Dellosso is quite interesting, but I say to short. It is really, really good and captures you and leaves you wanting more.
  I would like to have known more of what happened and how it happened in this story, but the authors sort of leaves you hanging.
It is very short or about 27 pages, so it is easily read. I got this book on my kindle and just started running/walking on my treadmill and listening to a book makes it go much faster and makes things more interesting.
  If you want a short story that is exciting and will keep in interested you will love this book. I truly did enjoy it, but like I said wish it had more to it. Will recommend it. Right now it only 99 cents on Amazon for your kindle.

MY REVIEW
  Mike Dellosso is an excellent author and will keep you spell bound until you finish reading Fearless. I love suspenseful novels and this one is one of the better ones.
  It teaches us that God can use anyone no matter their age or intelligence.
  I love to try to guess who the villain is in each book I read and usually can, but not with Fearless. I was very surprised at the ending.
  Like it says on the back cover of Fearless “A child mysteriously appears in the lives of Jim and Amy Spencer. Will her presence be a blessing or a curse?”
  I really enjoyed reading Fearless, but wouldn’t read it to close to going to sleep. It has some parts that are a little spooky, but I loved them.
  I like how one person can change so many lives and make such a difference in the world.  We are all important and make a difference in the world. We have to decide if the difference we make is for good or evil.
  If you love mysteries and very suspenseful books this one you will love.  Fearless is one of my favorite books for 2013. I highly recommend it.

MY REVIEW
 This is the second book I’ve read by Mike Dellesso and it is just as fantastic as the first.
  I really am intrigued about the idea of this series called 7 Hours and wanted to read all of the books. Also it is in my favorite genre, suspense/mystery.
  From the very first page until the last I was spell bound and wanted to read it at one time, but life always gets in the way. So with interruptions it only took me a couple of days to read.
   Besides being suspenseful this book is a very tender story of love and family life. We never know how one word from us can change someone else’s life., as it did in this book.
   I love the title of the book Rearview and how it is explained in the story.  The characters, events and dialogue in Rearview all work together brilliantly and make this book one very interesting, exciting read that will leave you wanting more.
I highly recommend this book and it is one of my favorites for the year 2012. A fantastic book.

MY REVIEW
  I wasn’t required to write a review of Scream by Mike Dellosso, but after reading it I wanted everyone to know what an excellent book this is.
  This is the first book I’ve read by Mike Dellosso and I’ve found another favorite author.
  I just love this book; Scream is full of mystery, suspense and adrenaline rushing scenes.
  It is a book that makes you think and want to do something about all of the lost people you meet. Everyone is going to die, but they don’t have to be lost.
  The character Mark was brought up in a “Christian home,” but they were hypocritical, so Mark wants nothing to do with Christ or Christians. Then one day while talking to his best friend he hears some screams and they seemed to be from Hell itself. Not your normal screams, but hideous ones. Then his friend dies. This happens several times.
 Also this book is about a guy who kidnaps women and wants to make them pay for something that happened in his past. After a while these two stories intersect and you will find out what it takes to free and help others.
  This book is so well written, full of interesting ideas and suspenseful that you won’t put it down. I love this kind of book and so glad I have a new favorite author to read his books. A five star book. I highly recommend this book.
  Right now this book in the eBook format is free. So just go to Amazon and you should be able to get it.
