Imagine suddenly finding yourself trapped within your own life. Nothing is the same and you can't trust anyone. There's a contract out on your life and you are the main suspect in your girlfriend's murder. This is what Ray Spencer is up against. Can he prove his innocence before his life is brought to a brutal end? Time is running out, bodies are piling up and places to hide are becoming few.

Escape is an action packed and never ending ride of "what nexts". The pace is quick and the story, a fast read. The author, Mr. James shows talent with drawing his readers into the story and taking them on an adventure.

That being said, I found some of the editorial glitches a bit distracting and, if polished, would increase the level of reading enjoyment. Several strategically placed page breaks in each chapter, a bit of rewording, etc, would be a great help, in my opinion. The story is very good and the writing has great potential. I look forward to reading the author's other works.

*overall rating 3/5

Thank you so much for having my final week with me. :) Marcia will be taking over the chats.

Something I thought about last night which struck me as funny. Do you remember the first book to be featured on the Noontime Book Chats? It was BREAKING DAWN and my complaints were the same as with ESCAPE. True, there weren't typos in BD, but it needed a lot of editing. ;)

Positives were also the same. Both had a great story line. Many readers didn't like the characters in BD, but I did.

I'm adding a link back to this chat. I became so wrapped up in listing the book challenge that I completely forgot.

Sorry about that!
