Pulse Review Spotlight

 

Welcome to the book tour for Pulse by B.A. Bellec! Read on for exclusive music and book details!

Pulse is that twisted horror novel that gradually builds, but keeps you page-turning to find out what is going to happen next. Set in the not-too-distant future, this book focuses on a litany of various subjects from climate change to politics. Pulse shows the dangers of a company having extensive power, but don't forget the monster in the woods! It's out there...lurking...and it's hungry.

Pulse is one of those books that after you've read the first chapter, your hair is going to be trying to stand up on end. LOL! I know mine was. I absolutely loved how twisted the first chapter was, and it immediately made me want to dig deeper into the story and find out what was going to happen next. I just needed a clearer picture of this creature in the woods. I kept wondering...is this a science experiment gone wrong? An animal that was once in a lab that escaped? What is it and where did it come from?

Pulse gives you multiple POVs throughout this story. You get repeat characters, obviously, and then you get some who only last the chapter. I loved the twisted nature of this story and the author's imagination. 

The author goes back and forth in time throughout this book. You go back years in time, and sometimes you just go a few days, weeks or months back in time. The author lays out just who and what "Pulse" the company is. I'm sure that my jaw ended up on the floor multiple times reading this book. One particular scene that comes to mind was the courtroom scene with Natalie. My heart broke for what she and her sister went through. However, the author showcases the manipulation of the court system...well done. 

The twists and turns throughout this book keep you on your toes. There are a lot of subjects touched in this book, so the horror gets a little lost, but I still enjoyed this book and I am absolutely looking forward to the next book in this series. Oh, did I forget to mention this is a series? LOL! Cuz it is! Lots to look forward to! 

I'm rating this book 4.5 out of 5 stars.

Thank you to the author, B.A. Bellec, and R&R Book Tours for the opportunity to read and review this book.
