Wishing Makes It So

Author:  Marilyn Meredith

Publisher:  Hard Shell Word Factory

Reviewer: W. H. McDonald – President of AAA

An Award Winning Suspense Thriller

Author Marilyn Meredith has written some very good books over the years – many of which I have read prior to reading her latest suspense thriller “Wishing Makes It So.” However, this is not like any of her other creative efforts – and it is certainly her best work to date. She takes a four-year foster child with such an innocent looking persona and gives us a charming and evil little manipulative monster. The storyline involves malicious and dangerous behaviors by poor little Belinda that ruins a wonderful family whose only intentions were to give her a loving home.

Meredith is a master at using a good mix of dialogue and characterizations with her narrative, so that the plot unfolds to give the reader a great psychological horror story. The story is fresh and alive and will grab the readers fullest attention – not allowing them to walk away from the book until they have devoured the last pages to find out what conclusion awaits them. It is a page burner that readers will find un-nerving but very much entertaining. This will become a classic novel of its genre someday, once others in the media discover this hidden gem as I have!

The American Authors Association (AAA) gives this book a FIVE STAR rating and a recommendation to buy and read this book!
