This book was horrible. The spelling and grammar were really bad. The sentences were fragmented. It was to wordy - (long & drawn out). The ending was disappointing. The author needs to consider taking a basic English class and creative writing coarse if there serious about writing. The story premise had potential. Overall I think I wasted my money and my time with this book.Product details

Darkness of Her Soul edition by Elle Anor Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
Darkness of her Soul has a classic Psycho element to it. The central character, Diane, seems to be a perfect law-abiding citizen. A respected nurse, she looks after her mother before and after work. At night, though, she leaves her mother to frequent the gay clubs, luring women into her web and killing them. The mystery grabs you. Why does Diane appear to be killing to please her dead father? What is the link to the Auntie who abuser as a child? Why are all the victims blonde, blue-eyed and in their fifties? I loved the twisting, interlinking story plots. The finale is hard-hitting. I'd recommend Darkness of the Soul to anyone who likes crime thrillers...
Great thriller and a very good read. The story is well described and the characters interact well with each other. Really loved reading it. There are a few graphic sexual scenes in the story, but it doesn't belong to the erotica genre it's listed in.
It's a fast-paced book that doesn't let up on the suspense or the erotic quotient . The way the contexts build up so that Laura is led into Diane's path is smooth.. sounds natural. My only crib was that there were too many characters introduced early on but it was good in a way...adding to the suspense. Needs some editing for typos. Very readable story.
This is one of the better thrillers I have read this year. Author Elle Anor does a nice job of establishing character and setting and gradually escalating the tension until the plot kicks in and the book turns into a total page turner. It's like the female answer to `American Psycho.' Chilling and well done.
Though listed under erotica, this story is definitely up there with all of the good murder-mystery, suspense filled stories. It wouldn't be fair to review the book as simple erotica, so I won't.
It is a sexual, ritualistic, highly detailed book, with great background relationships between characters and a very solid base.
The sexual and definitely lesbian content is a prominent factor in the characters and how they relate to each other, but the main focus is definitely the ritualistic murders of the lesbian women as a group, rather than the sexual relationships.
The characters are detailed, and very well-described,which allows the reader to understand the motivations behind what they say or do. There is the occasional typo, as is expected in the rather long piece of work, but there aren't that many, and they definitely don't detract from the plot.
Overall, a great read, particularly for someone with a GBLT interest.I loved it.
When I read there are a few key things I’m looking for, namely and in this general order
1. Are the characters detailed enough in physical description, background, behavior motivations and interactions with other characters so as to be easily relatable? Are the characters authentic? Will I care what happens to them throughout the story?
2. Is there an actual plot that carries these characters forward through time and events in a coherent and pleasing/attention-keeping way? Are there plot holes?
3. Does the writing (the words chosen and structured to tell the story) match up in quality to the story itself?
Darkness of Her Soul met two of the three requirements to merit having invested the time necessary to read the work.
The author gives us a cast of characters that reach out and connect with the reader through a fast paced plot of unexpected and often snicker-inducing twists and turns. Frequently, when not reading the book, I discovered I was wondering just what was going to happen next and very much enjoyed the developing relationship between the characters Lynn and Laura, the primary character around whom the novel revolves. The book is full of moments of surprising attention to detail in a variety of fields I now know how to make several alcoholic mixed drinks, know how several pieces of medical equipment work and why, and dove into a psychology class and came out a little more understanding of the mind of a victim of a sexual crime at the hands of a trusted relative.
This was enough of a connection with the story in order for me to slog my way through the writing. Ms. Anor admits in the post script that this is her first English language novel but this is no excuse for what appears to be a complete and flagrant disregard for editing. It should be fact enough to compel the author to hire on an editor whose native language is English. Yet English speaking or not any editor worth their salt (and the wages they might be earning in the process) might have taken a hand in pointing out the rough if not non-existent scene transitions. Scenes change often within the same sentence which is jarring, pulling the reader away from the story as they try to comprehend how the characters started in one place and ended up in another.
The overuse of commas was dreadful, making for stuttered reading until I trained my brain to see the extra comma but not pause in response. This did not seem to be something that was stylistic either. The text read as though the author inserted a comma every time she paused in her thinking. If so, she paused a lot. As a fellow writer this is something understandable but I strongly recommend a refresher course in grammar and punctuation.
In several places there were incorrect words being used. “Sequenced dress” instead of “sequined dress”; a character put on cloves at a crime scene, not gloves. The author also seems to appreciate the word plunge a great deal; she uses it with zeal to describe the characters sitting and laying down. They plunge to the couch and to their beds almost exclusively. I pictured these people moving in such jerky, compulsive ways that it detracted from the story.
There is a tense consistency that needs to be addressed. The text switches back and forth between third and first person tense sometimes in the same sentence.
I also found the usage of the F-bomb a little out of place in many places. Pat, one of the secondary characters, uses it in front of her sister’s young daughter and no one bats an eye. The words butch, dyke and dildo are strewn throughout the text lending a crudeness that is either intrinsic to the culture Ms. Anor is most familiar with in Pretoria, South Africa or words thrown in for the visceral reaction most people are going to have when reading them. I’d like to be clear in my meaning. What is at issue here is not the fact that this story revolves around lesbians but rather how the lifestyle is stylized in this text, particularly by the South African press. Do the newspapers there truly use those words in their headlines? Do the police and medical examiners use such vernacular terms in referring to a vibrator/sex toy as a dildo? It just didn’t read as professional to me - as though the author took the time to research medical procedures and equipment, police procedure and operations, but not how the press actually handles publicizing such atrocities. Because I had these questions I found this aspect to the story hard to connect with and digest.
My impression of Darkness of Her Soul was that the author has a genuine desire to tell stories and may even be pretty good at it. She gets people and creates characters that deserve better writing to support them. I followed the story on intrigue alone and often thought “this could be so much better if the author took a writing class, learned her craft and how to use it with finesse.” There is a great story in this book but the author tells it like she’s wielding a blunt axe instead of waving a baton and conducting a symphony.
Lastly this book is classified under the erotica genre. While there were aspects of sensuality and scenes of explicit sexual nature I would not consider this to be erotica. It would be more accurate to label it as a lesbian themed crime drama with a dash of sex and romance thrown in.
Save your hard earned money for filet mignon. Ms. Anor is serving only mediocre cheeseburgers here.
This book was horrible. The spelling and grammar were really bad. The sentences were fragmented. It was to wordy - (long & drawn out). The ending was disappointing. The author needs to consider taking a basic English class and creative writing coarse if there serious about writing. The story premise had potential. Overall I think I wasted my money and my time with this book.
