This one kept me guessing!

‘The prettiest things can be the most deadly, if you don’t know what you’re looking at, I suppose.’

A thrilling debut by Aussie Indie author Gabi White.

Thank you, G.M.White, for letting me read Bloom as an ARC Read.

Something about this cover caught my eye while scrolling on Instagram, and I'm so glad it did...

Bloom is a thriller/ mystery that won't disappoint you.

What starts as just a normal day to day story of Della opening up her own florist Shop turns into a wow what is happening story.

Bloom will have you feeling so many emotions from aww thats sweet shes meet her old girlfriend to wtf just happened? why did that happen? then the end ... so good. yes, I did think some of the things, but it still got me good.

"Have the Stars forgiven you?"


" Slipping through the Shadows, only stepping into the light when it proves necessary, has and always will be the foremost important skill I've mastered within the dark "

I would describe Bloom as a romantic, suspenseful thriller. The author keeps you on the edge of your seat, never really knowing what’s real and what isn’t. The ending will blow your mind! I thoroughly enjoyed this story and reading a book from a new Australian indie author.
I recommend Bloom to everyone who enjoys elements of paranoia, romantic tension, and floral world-building.

A fantastic thriller that had me second-guessing until the very last page! Can't wait to read other books by this author :)

This story blurred the lines of reality which added another layer to this thriller. I loved the plant elements, the trauma and small town all woven into the story.

I this leans heavily into mental health and psychological issues so I do warn readers as this could be triggering.

All in all this was a solid thriller debut from an Australian Indie Author.
