The book is different than other mystery/crime thrillers in the sense that the protagonist, Reid, is a person with dark character traits as opposed to a dark villain. Thanks for the review!

Today's book of the day is about Reid, a ruthless exploiter, rapist, and killer. He uses these talents to prey on the rich and celebrities of Hollywood by holding their scandalous secrets over them. I like the dynamic plots with the intriguing storyline. Congrats on BOTD!

This is so nice a book. From the plot to the storyline and the character development, the book seems to be standard. I like that the author made the character of Alton so relatable.
You are yet to be the best version of yourself. Keep refining.

This seems like a great thriller. The storyline is captivating and mysterious enough that I want to read this book. I'm curious how things will turn out for Reid with his new fixer as well. Congratulations on making book of the day!

I love mystery thriller like this. And it will be nice to explore the life of Reid Garrett, and explore the two-faced lifestyle he is living. Dark Vanity sounds like a great book to read. Nice review.

This is a suspense thriller. This page turner is creatively written by Gregory E Seller and has the theme of betrayal and mistrust. As I sampled the book it was hard to put it down. Your review is well written. Congratulations on the BOTD!

I like that the author used this book to campaign against drug use and give information about addiction. It will be a good read, too, with its exciting storyline.

The most endearing feature about this book is the fact that there are well developed characters. I also love the fact that the protagonist has faults, just like any of us. I believe this feature makes this book's fictional premise plausible.

The plot of this book is fantastic and intriguing. I like how the elements of romance, suspense and deception were weaved into the story. Reid's character is terrific and unbelievable – the author did a great job with it. I can say the same for the other characters like Alton's.

This is a creatively written story that's deserving of a perfect rating.

Wow, this suspenseful novel sounds perfect for its genre! The complex plot is a big draw for me, even though I avoid the genre of horror, and thrillers aren't my style. I do like a powerful storyline. This is a great review! Thanks!

Alton sounds like a grey character to me, and he's perfect to challenge a dark character like Reid.
