Designing parts with snap fit joints can save time and money in production. They do reduce not only material costs and part quantities but also improve ease of assembly. The traditional injection molding technique has proved viable for producing the snap joint. However, 3D printed snap fit design has new opportunities. This was an audio book I listened to, think I'm getting better at these. The narrator was Andrew Wincott, and I thought he did a wonderful job. Maybe I'm better with male narrators? Mommy must have ‘snapped’ a brain-artery... she goes searching for help....but leaves the kids behind. I also believe that I have a love/hate relationship with my thrillers. Was this a book that was super unique? No... but I was entertained for the most part. Belinda Bauer is an incredibly intelligent, creative and talented writer and is exceedingly well versed in producing fabulous thrillers that crime fiction readers young and old devour. Would I recommend? You bet! A must read for this summer!

The main aim is to catch a feature in the main component. That is, the protruded part of a component may deflect while joining. Then, it catches a feature that is present in the mating component.MY THOUGHTS: Bauer has a way of sneaking up on you. She doesn't rely on twists and turns to keep the reader interested. She gets inside the heads and hearts of her characters to provide a rich, deep and often humorous viewpoint. Snap by Belinda Bauer is a captivating, emotional and gripping read about tragic loss, grief, snap decisions and their devastating, longterm impact.

Thank you so much to Netgalley and Grove Atlantic for the opportunity to read this in exchange for my honest review. It’s believable ‘enough’ to put the readers mind at rest -( but shhh... we know much of this isn’t likely).... Bauer is known for taking the bleakest of situations and turning them into something special. At no point in this book are you going to go 'WOW!', because it is a quietly clever book, one that is a satisfying read, a moving read.

You pay a pretty penny for a Snapbook photo book – but is it worth your hard earned cash?

So these were two storylines. There is a third which is introduced as the beginning. A young pregnant woman, Catherine, awakes to find a note with a knife stating “I could have killed you”. She has no idea where it came from and she makes a “snap” decision not to tell her husband about this which ends up almost costing her everything! There's a very serious storyline running through the book of survival and family loyalty, realistic, emotional but dark and dangerous with a hint of humour that has fast become a trademark of Belinda Bauer's work. I truly loved it and couldn't stop reading, I was just so enthralled. A rather dark crime novel with some memorable characters and a burglar who likes to nap.....BUT someone will Snap!
