Description:
Tom Lee is one of Sydney Morning Herald's Best Young Australian Novelists 2019
One of the strangest
and most appealing novels you will read this year!
Tom Lee's first novel is about a young jogger who is in a relationship
with an older woman. She is both his coach and his mentor. Coach Fitz, as he
calls her, seeks to instil a philosophy of running which combines 'controlled
intensity' with a curiosity about places and their histories. A country boy, he
is fascinated by the landscapes of the city beaches and parks through which they
travel. And he has his own obsessions – with exercise routines, ancestral
legacies, outdoor gyms, horse-racing, weather conditions and inner-city eating
habits. Then, suddenly, their relationship falls apart, over the issue of sex –
and he becomes a coach and mentor in turn, to a young man this time, as he attempts
to orchestrate an ideal expression of his emotional, athletic and intellectual
urges.
Coach Fitz is an exploration of the outdoor mentality that plays
such a dominant role in the Australian psyche. It is remarkable for its
observations about landscape and physical exercise, embedded in the training
routines and dialogues of the runners. But most of all it is about the emotions
and aspirations of youth, and the complications these engender.
'This quirky debut novel by Tom Lee is a wonderfully strange patchwork of psychobabble, self-help buzzwords and technocratic jargon...There's an easy matter-of-factness here, a flatness of affect reminiscent of the work of Gerald Murnane.' — The Saturday Paper

That ending 😫
Format: Kindle
I fell into a false sense of security and really thought this was gearing towards a happy ending. Then I realized there’s no work they don’t punish Andrew. I really liked Vale’s character. I don’t normally read books with pregnancy but going into this knowing she was pregnant made it more enjoyable for me.
I loved Bishops devotion to her and her happiness. I also loved that Holt and Mercy couldn’t fight their attraction to her. I love scent matches so very much. I’m so curious to see how this duet will end up. And I need to pay more attention and notice that a book I’m starting is a duet to begin with lol

oh wow
Format: Kindle
I just knew there was something about Cooper! I’m wondering if he’s about to be included but damn I’m glad he’s at least not a rapist and creepy guy, he just got called on assignment and had to go! This should be interesting! She’s gonna run and then what’s his face is gonna grab her. I’m worried! Wow that was a great book and cliffhanger! Loving this!

Could not put this book down!
Format: Paperback
Binge read quality!! Finished in 2 days I was in a dilemma with this book. I couldn't wait to finish because it was so good, and yet I didn't want it to end, because it was so good. Staying up til 2:30am is the highest complement I can give to a book. Current day with Gothic feel. The story pulls you in immediately, and there is never a part where it feels dull, or that you need to skip through. Mysterious with plot twists, especially the end. I love how there were flashbacks from the past intertwined with present day. Gave a great backstory that only came together at the very end. Spicy for sure, and fit in perfectly with story. Great character development so that you could empathize with both of the main characters.. Lucian and Isa. Check Trigger warnings first!
Highly recommend this book

Easy Read With a Wild Ending
Format: Audiobook
This was a really easy book to get pulled into. The writing flowed well and I flew through it without feeling bogged down at any point. While I don’t think it hit me as hard as some of Keri Lake’s other books, I was still invested the whole time and needed to know where everything was going.
The atmosphere and mystery kept me hooked, but the ending? That twist completely caught me off guard. I honestly did not see that coming at all. Even though this one wasn’t my favorite from the author, the final turn alone made it worth the read.

A masterfully written, stunning, gothic romance!
Format: Kindle
Lucian Blackthorne . . . my, my, my. Be still my romantic, sinful, dark heart. This male lead is one of the most addicting, flawed, sensual, erotic characters I've ever read. fanning myself I loved his dark, thrill-seeking, possessive, obsessive, carnal nature. Seriously, where can I find one?
I digress. Lucian is a scarred man with secrets but that's only the tip of the proverbial iceberg. He's layered as deeply as an onion and it's addicting to peel back each one. He's a rich, powerful alpha male but there's so much to the man the town refers to as the Devil of Bonesalt. He's marked by loss, lies, a painful past, and the shadows of his choices in life. The Blackthorne name bears tragedy, turmoil, and an affiliation with the macabre.
Isadora is a strong female lead. She's young but her life hasn't been easy. She's flawed, haunted by the past, and as much an outcast as her new employer, the enigmatic, elusive Lucian Blackthorne. Her new position brings her into the fold, learning the darkness, deceit, sadness, and crimes elicited against the Blackthorne family. It only takes one night, one passionate encounter with the master of salt and bones to change her life forever.
Scandal, intrigue, tortured hero, suspense, thrills, mind-blowing twists, jaw-dropping secrets, and enough sensual bedroom scenes to set your kindle on fire.
This is a MUST READ. One of the best reads of 2022 for me. LOVED it!!
