WHAT A FULL CIRCLE?!?
One of the things that make a book a wonderful read for me, is when I have to flip to the first page again to reread it because my mind was THAT blown.
I was so nervous to pick up this book because I was afraid that it was gonna fall short just like the other books I’ve read by this author. But I am so pleasantly surprised and happy that this book excelled my expectations.
Okay let’s get down to why I loved the book.
1. The atmosphere was set up so perfectly. Dark, creepy, beautiful AND it was Halloween.
2. All of the little secrets that everybody has in the family & The way that everybody was introduced.
3. The multiple time jumps that we got and the way that we got them. I mean through family movies? Come on! I LOVED IT.
4. The feeling that nobody was ever telling the truth.
5. Those twists were SO WELL PLACED!!!
This is my 3rd Alice Feeney book, after giving the two others (Rock Paper Scissors & Sometimes I Lie) 3 stars.. I’m extremely excited to say this book is a 5 star read for me!!!!
