I was fortunate to win a copy of Ordinary Thunderstorms from Harper Perennial during Armchair BEA. However, being that it is not of the YA genre I really don’t have the time to read it right now, and I’d like to get it into the hands of someone who will enjoy it! So I’m going to turn this adult mystery and thriller book into a giveaway! I realize that since my blog is dedicated to YA my readers may not typically read this genre… but hey, maybe you want to branch out, or have a significant other, friend, or family member that you know this book will be right up their ally?
Here’s the synopsis from Goodreads:
A thrilling, plot-twisting novel from the author of Restless, a national bestseller and winner of the Costa Novel of the Year Award.
It is May in Chelsea, London. The glittering river is unusually high on an otherwise ordinary afternoon. Adam Kindred, a young climatologist in town for a job interview, ambles along the Embankment, admiring the view. He is pleasantly surprised to come across a little Italian bistro down a leafy side street. During his meal he strikes up a conversation with a solitary diner at the next table, who leaves soon afterwards. With horrifying speed, this chance encounter leads to a series of malign accidents through which Adam will lose everything — home, family, friends, job, reputation, passport, credit cards, mobile phone — never to get them back.
A heart-in-mouth conspiracy novel about the fragility of social identity, the corruption at the heart of big business and the secrets that lie hidden in the filthy underbelly of the everyday city.
