About Me:

I am a wife, mom of 3 teenagers, and I love to read. I do not limit myself to one genre, but do have some that I prefer. Depending on my mood I will choose a book from RomCom, Romance, Dark Romance, Suspense/Thriller, YA, NA, and SciFi/Fantasy. I would love to share the books I read with you so that you may enjoy them too!

It takes so much courage for an author to put their work out there for the public to read. Then to subject themselves to the opinions of those readers. You will not find disrespectful reviews on this page. Even if a book is not for me, it may be something someone else enjoys. I will not belittle or be nasty to any author, regardless of subject matter. No bashing of person or writing will be tolerated.

My goal by creating this blog is to help authors get their books noticed and to help introduce readers to authors they may not usually read.

Also, please note that any links contained on this website I DO NOT profit from. I do receive advanced reader copies of some of the books I review, but I promise to never let that sway my true feelings on the piece of work.

I am willing to help out as many authors/PAs/promotion companies as I can, but please know that my calendar doesn't always allow for a certain time frame. Please feel free to contact me and I can see if I am able to help. This is a one woman show ;) You can visit my Facebook Page (Like/Follow) at https://www.facebook.com/Reading-Escape-Reviews-279044492594921/ and my email is readingescapereviews@gmail.com

Thank you for stopping by! Oh, and be sure to get on the 2017 Goodreads Reading Challenge. I will be asking periodically for your actual and goal number!

The last time I saw my sister was the day before she vanished from my life. I’ve spent the last five years searching for her, clinging to the hope that one day I will find out what happened to her, but every leada has ended up at a dead end. Until now. He took me because he thinks I’m Her. My instinct is to run. I want to fight my way out of there, but I can’t. This man is my only connection to my sister. I’ll do whatever it takes to uncover the truth. Even if it means falling right into the arms of a psychopath.

My Review:

This book really ticked me off, in a good way.  At 25% through, I was having a really hard time trying to figure out the plot.  At 50% through, I was still having a hard time following what was going on.  At 75% I thought I had a good idea at what was happening.  82% BAM!  Talk about walls crumbling, heads rolling, and OMG what on earth, I had no idea!  It happened like that.

There wasn't one point that I had the plot figured out.  Jackson keeps us hanging until the very end.  See this book through though, don't give up.  That last 20% will mess with all of your theories and leave you going "where did that come from!"  With this being a first release by M.C. Jackson, I am excited to see where her writing takes us.  

I'm giving Mistaken Identity 4-stars.  I liked it a lot.  I could have used some of the twists a bit earlier in the story.  Keeping them until late in the book, made me at times wonder when we were going to get to the good stuff.  There was slower parts in the book that maybe could get some more attention grabbing.  Overall, after reaching the end of the book, the last part, is what brought it to 4 stars.  I just didn't fathom that would be the storyline.  I did love that!  I loved getting a crazy twist thrown at me that I really didn't see coming!
