The Gigantic Blog Tour


As you may have noticed if you follow me on Twitter or Facebook, all this month, I've been fortunate to have a deluge of book blogger reviews around the paperback release of What She Saw Last Night. My tour was put together by a couple of experts: Alex Layt from Orion and Tracey Fenton of compulsivereaders.com  Big thanks to them and the (literal) dozens of bloggers below.

I've been blown away by both the number of reviews and how good the general consensus is. Here's what they said (click through for full reviews)...

MoMo Book Diary
"Loved every minute of this book and highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys a good suspense thriller – but maybe not for anyone who travels on the sleeper…"

A Knight's Reads
"The fast paced chase up and down the country kept me glued to the pages right to the very end."

Love the Smell of a Book
"A story that had me hooked from the first few pages and kept me hooked throughout."

Joy Kluver
"This was my first M.J. Cross read – it won’t be my last."

Suze Reviews

Bookish Blogging
"I read this in one day, desperate to finish it, and genuinely almost missed my train stop!"

Jan's Book Buzz
"There’s danger, twists, secrets and lies and our two intrepid investigators need to overcome the odds to get to the bottom of a mystery that has them baffled. All of it makes for a thrilling, page-turning read."

Shalini's Books & Reviews
"I loved it. A fantastic rip-roaring thriller of a read."

Liz Loves Books
"Creatively clever to keep you turning the pages this is definitely one of those “just one more chapter before bed” books that ultimately finds you finishing it bleary eyed in the early hours. With everything I look for in my crime fiction right here I can’t do anything except highly recommend it."

The Bookwormery
"The tension builds making this a real nail biter of a thriller. Brilliant."

Roachie's Reviews
"What She Saw Last Night is a fantastically fast-paced thriller, which really doesn’t slow down until the bitter end."

Steph's Book Blog
"A great standalone introduction to Mason Cross."

Rachel Read It
"The plot is as claustrophobic and air tight as the tiny ‘room’ (read cupboard!) aboard the Caledonian sleeper that Jenny is travelling on and the plot is as taut as the tightrope Jenny balances on as she assesses her own sanity and the truth of what she saw with her own eyes."

Mac Reviews Books
"Mason has created a fantastic story, stifling settings and memorable characters. I can’t wait to read more."

West's Words
"What She Saw Last Night is pure escapism which you’ll eagerly consume in a maximum of two sittings."

GNTxReads
"I found myself racing through the final pages. Afterwards I was left feeling exhausted from such a brilliant psychological thriller, and needed a warm cup of tea to calm down!"

Alex J Book Reviews
"Cross paces this perfectly, culminating in a fast adrenaline filled cracker of a finale."

Stacy is Reading
"What She Saw Last Night is a fly by the seat of your pants thriller with enough twists and turns en route to satisfy any Train Noir fan out there."

Nicki's Book Blog
"Loved this. One to enjoy and envelop you."

Books from Dusk till Dawn
"There are some really hairy moments within these pages from an author who definitely knows how to shock and throw his readers off-balance."

One More Word
"The pacing of the book was great – it was filled with short snappy chapters, changes in POVs and the plot was littered with little cliff-hangers. "

RamblingMads
"The plot whizzes along, the writing is tight and carries you along with it, just like a train."

"It’s an emotional read that has you hooked from start to finish, it keeps you on your toes and every so often your a bit thrown because it becomes so unpredictable. "

Bookish Jottings
"What She Saw Light redefines compulsively readable thrillers and this is one nerve-twisting and heart-pounding page-turner that is impossible to put down and difficult to forget."

Kelly's Book Space
"I was hooked right from the start and with all the twists and turns the story took I was very reluctant to put the book down, I just wanted to know what would happen next."

"Gripping, emotional and devastating; this is a superbly crafted thriller and it gives me enormous pleasure to wholeheartedly recommend it.”
