Part of a series but you can read this as a standalone novel. I enjoyed the characters and thought the plot was good. I just think it needed a bit more editing

This is a great read and a well-detailed plot that kept me engaged from the very start. I really liked the well-thought-out characters and found them to be believable. I cannot wait to read what the author brings out next.

I haven't read anything by ms Kamal before, so perhaps I missed some references to the first book, but this read nicely as a standalone in my opinion. It was entertaining to see how Nora has grown as a person and a character since book 1, can't wait for next book.

Thankyou to NetGalley, Bonnier Zaffre and the author, Sheena Jamal, for the opportunity to read a digital copy of It All Falls Down in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.
I had no idea what to expect from this novel. I just had to judge a book by its cover.
I am so glad I did. The storyline was well thought out and written. I Had to read this book in one sitting.
Definitely well worth a read. I am certainly going to read more from this author.

Hm. My next book better be good because I’ll definitely have a book hangover...

I loved Eyes Like Mine, loved this one too. Nora is a fierce young woman who trouble always seems to find her...

Can’t wait for book 3!

I received an e-copy of this book from the publisher through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

What I have found is that titles that have no synopsis posted on NetGalley seem to have a low pick-up rate, as if people cannot manage to search for it elsewhere on the web. Maybe people are just lazy, who knows. This is one of those with no blurb, but after reading it elsewhere on the net it sounded intriguing, it certainly didn't put me off! Okay, rant over!

With advance praise from Jeffery Deaver and Lee Child, and it being recommended for fans of Stieg Larsson, Sharon Bolton and Peter Swanson, this had me at hello. I see that this is the second in the Nora Watts series from Sheena Kamal, I haven't read the first one, but I feel this could easily qualify as a standalone title.

"It All Falls Down" is what you call a real page-turner with a fantastic storyline and Nora Watts, the central character is a fascinating and well-developed protagonist who is both feisty and deeply flawed. In Nora, Kamal has created a believable and relatable main character. I plan to go back and read the first in the series in order to understand how her past has moulded her into the person she is today. The plot is taut and intricate, full of tension and suspense. The writing is excellent making the novel very simple to engage with and plenty of pace in the storyline means everything just flows naturally, this made it an absolute pleasure to read.

Many thanks to Zaffre for an ARC. I was not required to post a review and all thoughts and opinions expressed are my own.
