Empathy (Empathy, #1) by Ker Dukey

They say some people are born with decreased activity in the brain; a cold spot in the front central lobe. Where most people have activity, a hot area giving them feelings, emotions and enabling them to love, there are a rare few who have a cold spot, affecting their ability to feel emotions, empathy.
There are theories that serial killers have this cold spot. Psychopaths. That’s why they lack the ability to connect, to care.

I don’t have feelings the way most people do. I may be one of those people...
Psychopaths.
I don’t know.

I don't want to love...
I don't want to feel...
I don't want...
Empathy...

“I’m not normal.

I don’t love.
I don’t have empathy."

oOo

There's nothing more important than find a good book, on the right moment and right mood.

Right when I need book that can blow my mind and suited my "killing mode", I stumbled with this one.

Well, this book had been sitting on my reader for quite long and I keep passing it and choose another title. Duh !

I know this book had promising blurb, and one of my buddy read kept insisting me to try it, but.....I always tell her that "I'm not in the mood"....
Silly me, and my stupid mood !



Soon I found that I couldn't put this book down since the first line of the book caught my eyes.
It's mesmerized me and woken up my "psychopath side" in strange way.



I appreciate how the author trying to mislead the reader to follow what she want, drove the reader to false direction, but no, I can "see" where's the story gonna end.
But, even I know who the real devil is, the story still interesting enough to follow.

I like the epilogue, but "the second epilogue" was the one that really gave the "WTF-things" to me.



So...



You think that you know who the devil is?





Nah! You don't!





About The Author




My books all tend to be darker romance, edge of you seat, angst filled reads. My advice to my readers when starting one of my titles...prepare for the unexpected.

I have always had a passion for storytelling, whether it be through lyrics or bed time stories with my sisters growing up. We also used to put on performances by acting out stories. I wanted to become an actress from an early age so I could live out many roles but unfortunately I learned early on that my mind was too active...(I would end up wanting to change the script)
I would watch films or TV shows and think of ways they could have improved the story if they took another direction so I thought it best that I tell my own.

My mum would always have a book in her hand when I was young and passed on her love for reading, inspiring me to venture into writing my own. I tend to have a darker edge to my writing. Not all love stories are made from light; some are created in darkness but are just as powerful and worth telling.

When I'm not lost in the world of characters I love spending time with my family. I'm a mum and that comes first in my life but when I do get down time I love attending music concerts or reading events with my younger sister.

Come find me on facebook where i love interacting with my readers.
