Review: Caller ID by Rachelle J Christensen PLUS enter to win a camcorder!

From Goodreads:  When twenty-three-year-old Courtney Beckham is abducted near her home, the search turns up more than just a kidnapping crime. FBI agent Jason Edwards investigates the ten-million-dollar ransom and stumbles upon something he wasn't meant to find. When Courtney catches a glimpse of the caller ID in her kidnapper's home, what she sees turns her world upside down.

I totally knew I was in for a good ride when I signed on to be a part of this blog tour for Caller ID.  I read Wrong Number, also by Rachelle Christensen, and enjoyed it so I knew this would be good.


The story starts off by telling us how someone had been murdered in the woods the previous year.  Courtney's dad is always telling her to stay out of the woods so when she decides to take a ride into the woods on her horse, my heart started anticipating.  I tried to tell Courtney, "Do NOT go into those woods."  "Oh, do NOT follow that little dog into the woods."  "DO NOT DO IT!!!"  Seriously?  Nobody listens to me.  


I was fully invested from the beginning to the end of this book.   Courtney was very resourceful and um, flexible.  If I had been where Courtney was I would have totally died because I cannot contort my body in those ways.  Wait a minute, this is fiction, so never mind.  I totally could have been just as resourceful and flexible.  In fact, I probably could have done it 20 minutes earlier than her because in fiction, I'm way smart too.


The story moved right along.  It was interesting and kept my mind wondering how all the pieces fit together and it kept my heart beating just a bit faster than necessary.  Which was good because I totally counted that for my workout for that day.  Who knew reading could also be a workout, right?  And yes, I totally did read this book in one day.  It was that good.  :)  Check out this book trailer and let me know how you liked it.  I thought it was perfect for the book.










I'm so glad I got to read this book and be a part of this blog tour.  My thanks to Cedar Fort for providing the opportunity.  You can check out all the blogs participating in this hop here.
