Resenha: As Outras Pessoas, de C. J. Tudor
Tumblr media
Livro: As Outras Pessoas Volume Único Autora: C. J. Tudor Gênero: Mistério, Suspense Ano de Publicação: 2020 Editora: Intrínseca Páginas: 304 Classificação: +14
No terceiro romance de Tudor, acompanhamos a história de Gabriel, um homem arrasado pelo luto e pela perda de sua mulher e filha. Só do mesmo jeito que no fundo ele tem certeza que sua esposa está realmente morta, ele também está certo de que Izzy, sua filha, está viva em algum lugar esperando que ele a encontre. Durante os últimos três anos, ele não parou de tentar.
O livro começa três anos antes, Gabe está na estrada a caminho de casa quando enfrenta um engarrafamento. Na sua frente, há um carro com dizeres esquisitos e contraditórios colados na parte de trás quase obscurecendo o vidro que dá visibilidade ao banco traseiro. Só que, quando ele presta um pouco mais de atenção, percebe que tem uma menininha ali. Com o mesmo tamanho e aparência de sua filha, mas é só quando ela encosta no vidro e fala "papai" que ele tem certeza. O engarrafamento chega ao fim e uma pequena perseguição começa, mas Gabe acaba ficando para trás e perdendo o carro de vista. Quando ele liga para casa, buscando uma segurança de que o que acabou de ver não passou de fruto de uma mente cansada - e culpada -, Gabe descobre que sua mulher e sua filha foram assassinadas ainda dentro de casa. O ocorrido acaba trazendo erros do passado de Gabe a tona, mas é só três anos depois, quando acaba encontrando o carro que viu na estrada abandonado num lago que ele descobre sobre "As Outras Pessoas", uma organização localizada na dark web que age como uma troca de favores, fornecendo justiça para todo tipo de caso.
Do outro lado da história, acompanhamos Fran e Alice. As duas estão fugindo de alguma coisa terrível e Fran tenta proteger a criança o máximo possível, inclusive com os "eventos" que acontecem com a menina: Alice tem uma espécie de narcolepsia que a faz adormecer do nada em diversos lugares, em especial na frente de espelhos, onde ela diz ver uma menina pálida chamando por ela. Ao acordar, Alice sempre encontra uma pedrinha nas mãos. Porém, elas não podem dar muita importância para o significado disso. Elas precisam continuar fugindo. Tudor mais uma vez entrega uma história incrivelmente instigante e intrigante. Com um toque sobrenatural que acaba te deixando procurar explicações mesmo depois da história acabar, ela cria um enredo interligado que torna difícil largar a história antes de chegar ao fim. Apesar de eu estar esperando algo diferente do que eu recebi (achei que seria mais focado na "organização" em si), nem por isso "As Outras Pessoas" foi uma leitura ruim, na verdade, arrisco dizer que se tornou uma das minhas favoritas da autora até agora.
Alguém já leu esse ou outro da autora? Conta para mim nos comentários qual o seu favorito ou qual você tem mais vontade de ler! ❤️
NOTA: 🌟🌟🌟🌟✨ - 4.75/5 + 💖

A Sliver of Darkness is a collection of horror short stories from C.J. Tudor. She introduces each story and gives some background on the source. It's interesting to hear an author's experience and journey during the pandemic - all of the things that affected their ability to craft a story. There are several excellent stories here. My favorites are End of the Liner and Gloria. Gloria includes characters from two of Tudor's previous books. Great choice if you're looking for some scary season reads. #asliverofdarkness #cjtudor #randomhouse #ballantinebooks #horrorshortstories #shortstories #netgalley #bookstagram #bookshelves #booknerd #readinglife #bookphotography #bookcommunity #bookblogger #sodacityreads #suspensebook #bookhaul #literarycrimefiction #homelibrary #thrillerbooks #domesticthriller #crimefiction #thriller #characterdrivenbooks #mysterythriller #bookrecs https://www.instagram.com/p/Ckx_lyMr6Es/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Good Problem To Have
I currently have over 15 books in my TBR pile.  Well, there’s probably closer to 1500, but there’s 15 that I have put aside (either in e-book or regular book) that I’m planning to read in the next month.  The only negative thing I can say with this problem is that it makes me want to rush through my reading---to the point where I might not be enjoying them as much as I could/should.  So am I complaining?  Absolutely not.  Am I wishing I had more hours in the day?  ALWAYS!!
Five Survive by Holly Jackson
Tumblr media
 Red and five of her friends are taking an RV to spring break---it’s a good way to save some money, and it’s a fun trip.  At least it’s fun until they find themselves a bit lost on a road, with no cell service to navigate forward.  When they attempt to turn around and go back, they get a flat tire, which turns into for flats, which turns into actual bullets flying past their heads as they run back to the RV for shelter.  It doesn’t take long for them to realize they’ve been targeted, and someone in the group isn’t really there for spring break.  Although this was a YA book, it’s a pretty decent thriller.  The characters were all relatable and I found myself quickly pulled into the story.  I definitely recommend, especially if you’re looking for something that wraps up nicely in the end without too many loose ends.
4 Stars
Special Note:  Thank you to the publisher and to NetGalley for allowing me to read this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

The Drift by C. J. Tudor
Tumblr media
During a severe snowstorm, Hannah’s boarding school is evacuated and she finds herself trying to survive the bus crash in the middle of nothing but snow drifts.  In a separate storyline, Meg finds herself stranded with strangers in a cable car during a snowstorm, with no sign of help coming for them.  In a third POV, Carter is trekking back to the ski chalet where he lives and works, trying to get to safety before the storm becomes impassable.  How the story comes together for these three individuals, all facing dramatic life-or-death situations is absolutely riveting.  How are their lives related and who will survive in the end?  I wasn’t sure about this book at all, but it sucked me in and held me captive until the last page.  Highly recommend, especially for a snowy evening read!

Secrets Between Friends by Tracy Buchanan
Tumblr media
Liz is back in Easthaven, living with her mother again but this time with her two daughters in tow as she goes through a messy divorce.  When she finds out Tamsin is back as well and living at Lakewell Manor, Liz decides to reach out and try to rebuild the friendship she shared with her once best friend.  Their initial meeting is promising, only for Liz to return and find that another woman has taken Tamsin’s place, using her identity and living in her home.  For Liz to find out the real truth may cause her more problems than she can afford, but what happened to the real Tamsin?  I enjoyed this book, even if the characters annoyed me at times.  It held my attention and I thought some of the twists were well thought-out.  At other times, I found myself wanting to shake Liz and tell her to think…but I guess that’s how it is with real people sometimes, too.  😊

Book Review: "The Drift" by C.J. Tudor
#bookreview #bookrecommendations #thedrift #cjtudor #horror #thriller
I picked up C.J. Tudor’s The Drift for my sixth read of the year. I’d heard of Tudor before and had seen The Chalk Man getting positive reviews. So when I saw The Drift’s stunning cover in my local Tyrolia, I had to pick it up. Whoever said don’t judge a book by its cover? Three thriller stories twist around each other, happening at the same time. Oh, and there’s a zombie-ish apocalypse going…

“Jamais confie em uma pessoa cujas estantes estejam abarrotadas de livros imaculados, ou pior, em quem coloca os livros com as capas voltadas para fora. Essa pessoa não tem o hábito da leitura. Essa pessoa só gosta de se exibir. (…) Um leitor de verdade dobra a lombada, manuseia as páginas, absorve cada palavra, cada nuance. Não se pode julgar um livro pela capa, mas, com certeza, pode-se julgar o dono do livro”

Si te alejas lo suficiente de las relaciones que te atan, las personas que te definen, los paisajes y las rutinas familiares que te ligan a una identidad, puedes huir de ti mismo con facilidad, al menos durante un tiempo. El yo no es más que un constructo. Puedes desmontarlo, reconstruirlo, tunearte uno nuevo.
Siempre y cuando no vuelvas atrás. Si lo haces, ese nuevo yo desaparece como el traje nuevo del emperador, dejándote desnudo y al descubierto, revelando tus horribles defectos y errores a los ojos del mundo.📚
