I am always up for reading murder mysteries, but I don't know. Something feels off with this one. I'll see how the sample pages turn out. Thank you for the review.

This looks like a great easy thriller, and although it deals with human trafficking, it sounds like it has been handled beautifully!

The title sounds horrifying. I don't like scary things. In addition to this, the premise of the book doesn't really appeal to me. It sounds really complicated.

I was definitely looking for a good mystery, and the premise for this does sound interesting. The official review made the book sound a bit disappointing but I'll look at the sample and reconsider!

Corruption, Blackmail & Bodies... yep, that would pull me right in for sure! Too bad that the book lost some zeal further in, I will still read it based on your review. It sounds intriguing, and since you forewarned us, I think I can get past that. Thank you for the honest review.

"Cup of Evil" by E. Groat is a great title for this book taking as a reference the horrible problems like trafic of humans and sexual abuse of children, but i dont understand why you refers to this like a minimal detail, is a long and exhaustive great review, is a good job. For this reazon i consider it an excelent and interesting book. :)

Corrupt politicians are very popular nowadays in the whole world, especially the murder part makes this book interesting.

I have sampled this already and also found the first few pages most intriguing. I'm disappointed to hear that they don't live up to their promise! I know what you mean about the characters' names even after reading ten pages - must be a technique writers need to use to ensure the names stick. Interesting stuff, anyway!

Well the title "cups of evil" may not be that attractive. The content is a bit of repulsive but it's up hold . It might need a bit of interesting and understanable content so that people don't lose their interest while reading the review. Other than that it was a different thing as what I liked and spotting out such affairs like child abuse, corruption and etc throughout the world is a meaningfull thing to do . Thank you for the review!
