MY WRITING JOURNEY

With no formal background or training, I nonetheless felt driven to write. I was surprised at how easily the words flowed ... and I managed to write my first novel, Trusting Claire, in three months. This was followed by Wanting Aidan, which was published four months later. Then I somewhat slowed down with Romero Pools, my third novel - the three of which were written within a year - my first year as a published author. Romero Pools will be released Christmas 2021. Now my fourth is on the way. I have, up to now, written maybe half of Hero of Blackpool. But I have slowed down considerably. I have developed patience and discipline, and feel I have grown in my art. Thank you for following my journey.
I am so proud of Romero Pools, and very excited about Hero of Blackpool, which will be released in the fall of 2022. In the story I bring back PI Joe Parrott, from Wanting Aidan. Please enjoy my books, and keep reading!

Amazing read. Can't wait for her next book.
Reviewed in Canada on March 12, 2021I read my fair share of mysteries and while I enjoy the genre, I find many mysteries are marred by overly complex and gimmicky plot twists. In this respect, Alyssa Hall’s Trusting Claire is a refreshing and original antidote. Hall’s narrative style is subtle and restrained, allowing the suspense of the story to build organically rather than being forced. Her approach does not attempt to manipulate the reader. Her deft characterization of Claire’s relationships, both romantic and platonic, transported me back to my twenties when seemingly inconsequential choices can change the course of our lives. I highly recommend this book and look forward to her upcoming novel.

Great debut full of sharp observations. Can’t wait for a next book!
Reviewed in Canada on December 23, 2020It’s incredible how many interesting and vivid details the author was able to put in the relatively small package. Her writing is full of life and allows to create a complete visual about places and characters. The expressive language brings out so many emotions without you being mired in the unnecessary.
I love how the author introduces the characters and gives you a chance to travel in time and experience different cultures and places. This is a great debut full of sharp observations about the world, the human nature and relationships, the lives of immigrants and their children and more. This book is delicious to read and I can’t wait for the next book by Alyssa Hall.
