Stunning piece of fiction
| What a truly beautiful book this is. The story of this young girl is a heart wrenching one. The author has captured the soul of this girl and has brought her to life on these pages. The wording she uses is poetical. There were times in this book that a particularly descriptive scene would literally take my breath away. I didn't just read this book - I felt like I was living it, right along with the main character. Gorgeous writing indeed. I'm blown away by the author's skill in weaving together all of the secrets, betrayals and life-changing decisions in such a compelling way. This is a wonderful debut and deserves to be on all of the bestseller lists. It's literary fiction at its best. I just read that the author is working on a new novel and I'll be keeping my eye out for it. The author gave me a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review and I'm so very glad she did as I may not have found it otherwise and would have missed out on a stunning piece of fiction. |
