What a great review! I love your use of words. It sounds like an exciting story, but maybe too much for my taste. Too many bad things happening to bad people.

This thrilling crime tale, of happenstance associations, sounds like a nice read. I like it that the author possesses a talent for descriptive prose and an effortless ease of storytelling. However, themes of armed robbery, suicide, cheating husbands, prostitution, kidnappings, gun violence, and suchlike aren't my favorite. I'll definitely skip this one. Thanks for your incredible review.

The book sounds like one with so much twist and suspense. Doesn't look to me like a book I may gladly read to the end as I do not enjoy a lot of twist but I am sure this book will play out well as a movie. Good and honest review.

I love how you reviewed this book. I like thrillers, but I think that romance in it is not for me. Great review!

I love twisted ends, I like it when a book ends in a way you don't expect them to. It widens your perspective. I am going to love this book if it comes across my hand, thanks for your awesome review!

There's something about a book in which the action takes place in a single day or two that I have always found intriguing. That aspect to "Girl with a Flat Tire" immediately piqued my interest. The reviewer paints a nice description of the plot and characters, also drawing me in. In addition, the first few chapters of the book read like the kind of book I enjoy, and the author's style and command of the language seem excellent. I'll be looking forward to reading the book in its entiretly, hopefully in the not too distant future.

This book is definitely engrossing! It keeps you interested! A page Turner! But there is a little strong language and a bit disturbing!

I like crime thrillers. However, after sampling this book, I've realized that its pace is way too slow for me. Nice review
Insofar as the word 'should' even has meaning, then we must say that the past is exactly as it should be, everything that happened should have happened, and everything that should happen will happen

Girl with the flat tire is immediately absorbing with the plot spun skillfully by the characters the author has created. With each page, the characters come alive making me care about them and eager to know what happens next. I would certainly recommend this book to any one who enjoys abit of drama.

The book sounds exciting and very much suspenseful. The location and period of the book is captivating. My shelve is filled with many books now but I will look at it some other time. Thanks for the review

The title immediately captures my attention, it would certainly be a book that I would pick up to read the back of in a bookshop if I was browsing! Having read your review, it confirmed my judgement of the cover :) It sounds like it has everything I love in a book: love at first sight, thrill, danger, speed! Thank you for such a thorough and utterly masterfully written review! Is there an option on here where one can 'follow' a reviewer? I spotted a pattern that I have grown to really like all your reviews! Your writing style and eloquence are awesome! :D

It looks like the book has several layers on it that will merge at a climactic ending. If the book is only a couple of hundred long, and the story happens within a 48-hour timeframe, then it must be a definite page-turner.
