Amber Reynolds is in a coma, her husband doesn’t love her anymore, and sometimes she lies. She’s hovering between being awake and comatose, able to hear what’s going on around her when she’s not being swallowed into the darkness of her dreams.
Even though it was a page-turner, some twists I figured out as I read and some left me more confused than anything. I think the premise was interesting, but it just didn’t hold up for me. I am excited to hear what my book club thinks about it through!
Graphic: Rape
Moderate: Miscarriage, Death of parent, and Murder
Minor: Sexual assault and Stalking
