Welcome to the Night Shift .
It's gonna be a ride

Overall this was a good read. Quick read & short chapters which I love.
LOTS of drama !!! 🤯
I wasn't a huge fan of really any of the characters tbh but I felt for Nina , Laura, Dom, & even Luca.

I did love how the author incorporated diabetes into the book to get attention. Diabetes is such an epidemic & regardless if you have it or not knowing info on this subject is important & potentially life saving.

Thank you to netgalley for an advanced copy

Another great book by Gemma Rogers. Lots of suspense with a gripping narrative. The pace built up gradually, drawing me in to the drama that unfolded.

The plot was intriguing and kept my attention throughout. It has kind of creepy vibes with a cat and mouse style chase.

Thank you to NetGalley, the publisher & Gemma Rogers for an ARC of this book.

The main plotline in this book takes place over the span of the 12-hour shift of Nina, who is currently attending medical school, and uses her night shift at the 24-hour storage facility to catch up on homework; Nina is diabetic and she must be checking her insulin levels throughout the day. On this particular shift, she had already had a bad start as she had just broken up with her boyfriend; throughout her shift she starts seeing suspicious activity in one of the storage units, and her night goes from bad to worse.

I enjoyed the multiple POVs throughout the book and the twists in the story were unexpected. Loved how the author incorporated a lot of information about the everyday lifestyle/activities of a diabetic person. The author's style of writing is very descriptive and I was able to picture all the events in the book as I was reading.

Thank you Boldwood Books for providing this book for review consideration via NetGalley. All opinions are my own.

Get ready for a terrifying cat-and-mouse of a thriller! Nina loves the night shift so she can have peace and quiet to study. But then one night a man comes in with a suitcase and the games begin! You will need to keep all the lights on for this one!

Many thanks to NetGalley and Boldwood Books for this ARC!

This book kept me on my toes!! So much suspense throughout the whole story line. The ending I NEVER could of guessed. I couldn’t put it down! There is so much detail in this book it felt like I was physically in the book going through the motions with the characters.

Thank you to the author and NetGalley for allowing me an advance reading copy! 💕

I have loved so many of Gemma Rodger's book and this one was no different. It had me hooked right away and was such a captivating read throughout.

Nina is on a night shift at the warehouse Storage Queen. It's Friday Night and Nina assumed that the work will be slow so she could peacefully study for her university exams. But then her night eventually becomes a nightmare when a man comes into the storage unit carrying a suitcase.

This was a fast paced thriller. The first few parts of the story was great--it was intriguing, intense and with Nina's diabetic condition seems to make the thriller more interesting. However, starting from the middle and towards the end, the story kind of started to get little boring in my opinion. However, you feel like you are watching a horror action packed thriller movie on the TV when you are actually reading this book. The writing was great however and I like how the author managed to keep the reader at the edge with one Nina is going through.

This has great premise in my opinion. However, the execution wasn't so great to this overall great plot and story making the story a bit more unrealistic. Overall, this was a good thriller and worth 3.5 stars.

Many thanks to Netgalley and Boldwoods for the ARC. The review is based on my honest opinion only.

My first read by this author and won't be the last. Described perfectly as a cat and mouse thriller. I couldn't turn the pages fast enough to find out what was to happen next. Tense, thrilling and scary , I raced through this book to discover the outcome.

Thanks to Boldwood Books and Netgalley for the ARC of this book.
The book introduced the character nicely and the the story started. It was fast and furious as Gemma got chased and ran from floor to floor of the premises. I think it was perhaps a little too long but it certainly made you want to carry on reading. The twist with Stacey was totally unexpected and a great move.
Just felt after all the action the ending was a little fast and the forgiving of Dom a little bit too much.

Gemma Rogers best book to date! This book grabbed me from the first page and kept me up late into the night not wanting to put it down until I found out what was going to happen next! Full of surprises and twists you won't see coming this book will have you on the edge of your seat holding your breath and screaming at the main character to do this or don't do that its awesome! I would absolutely love to see this made into a movie!!! A must read for all thriller fans!!

Thank you to NetGalley, the author and publisher for granting me a copy of The Night Shift to read and review.

I honestly don’t know where to start! I literally found myself holding my breath and feeling my heart race as main character Nina fought for her life all night. Did not want to put this down!

Lots of twists, turns and cat and mouse games included in this brilliant, brilliant thriller. I will remember this one for a long time!

Will definitely make my top 5 books of the year, an absolute winner.

This book grabbed me right at the beginning and never let up! Its definitely a gripping, edge of your seat psychological thriller. Best book I’ve read lately. I recommend it to everyone!

I read this in one sitting. I couldn't put it down. The locked room trope always captures my attention, and this book brilliantly used the perfect setting of a storage facility. It's night time, dark, empty and sinister- what better for a creepy story?

Nina thinks she's going to have another boring, quiet night as the night receptionist at Queen Storage. She's planning on licking her wounds from a recent breakup and studying, but of course, her night shift does not go as planned when a strange man enters the facility lugging a heavy suitcase.

From there, it's a game of cat and mouse that had me completely hooked and unable to stop reading. This is one of Gemma's best books and it's easy to imagine it as a movie. (Netflix are you listening?)

Clear your schedule and settle in with this novel.

I loved the anonymity, flexibility and solitude that working the night shift at Storage Queen gave me. The unsociable hours paid well, helping me fund my university degree and giving me a quiet place to study while the world slept peacefully in their warm cosy beds. It was the perfect job for me. But that Friday night proved to be more than I bargained for when a man walked through the door dragging a large suitcase.

The story takes place over a night shift and it eventually turns into a dangerous game of cat and mouse. Told primarily from Nina's perspective, but we do get some input from some of the other characters. It also has an interesting take on the "locked room" trope. Nina has type one diabetes and it was well-portrayed by the character, It starts off slow, but the pace soon picks up. Nina had just split from her boyfriend Dom before her night shift had started, and the rest of her night just goes quickly downhill, spiralling out of control.

I would like to thank #NetGalley #BoldwoodBooks and the author #GemmaRogers for my ARC of #TheNightShift in exchange for an honest review.

Nina works the night shift at a 24h-access storage unit, and tonight is like no other. Tonight, Nina is fighting for her life. This book follows her in her desperate attempt to out smart and out-live her worst nightmare- while also trying to battle hypoglycemic attacks from her type one diabetes.

Were there multiple times I yelled at the character as if she were in a scary movie making all the wrong decisions? Yes. Big is the story believable? Also yes. Did I cringe at the hyper focus of her diabetes? Yes. Was I impressed at the practicality of involving real like issues in a general thriller book? Also yes.

The pacing was perfect. The storyline checks out. The whole thing wrapped up beautifully. I was so unexpectedly impressed with this one! Thank you NetGalley and Boldwood Books for the ARC.

Thank you for the ARC! This was very well done! It gave me Freida McFadden vibes and was quick paced and easy to follow! I can't wait for everyone to read it so I have people to talk about this with!

The Night Shift is all about Nina working in a storage unit on the night shift, tonight is not going to plan though. It’s a quick read, but i found it a bit repetitive, but the whole book is in the small storage units. There was a little twist at the end which I didn’t see coming. It was an ok read, I’d give it 3.5 stars. Thanks to Netgalley and the publishers for a copy.

Another gripping read from the fantastic Gemma Rogers!

Having loved all Gemma’s previous novels, I went into this one on the basis of her other work rather than the description of this one - as it appeared to be the story of one standalone night rather than the stories I usually enjoy which cover significantly longer time periods. I’m glad I did though as this book is excellent entertainment!

To continue funding herself through medical school, Nina takes a job in a storage facility. Working the night shift there, she is alone, with only occasional customers coming in to access their belongings. On the fateful night of this story, Nina has far from the quiet night shift she hopes for!

Expect ‘cat and mouse’ chases, lots of attempts to escape murderous events and just lots of blood and carnage!! There are no quiet moments in this novel! It is a great read and stands out amongst other titles in this genre.

My thanks to NetGalley, author and publisher for the opportunity to review this book in exchange for an advance copy.

I love locked-room suspense novels and this one did not disappoint. i am a new fan of Gemma Rogers. Nina is stuck in a 24 hour shift in a storage unit and it goes hellishly wrong.

Excellent physiological thriller that Gemma Roger’s has nailed. Loved this book.
Working in a storage facility on the nightshift leaves one employee with a problem which revolves into bigger problems throughout the night.
Brilliant with some surprising twists and turns.
Highly recommended.
