My Review:
Wow this was a very different, gripping thriller which I just couldn’t put down. This is going to be a hard book to review as I don’t want to give anything away!
I don’t think I’ve read many books where the main character is bipolar, so I enjoyed learning more about the condition and the unreliable slant it gives the story. Throughout the story the reader is never sure whether what Helen is experiencing is down to her condition or the skill she thinks she has to communicate with the dead. This provides a creepy, unsettling atmosphere to the book which I found fascinating. It’s definitely a book that gets into your head as I found myself thinking’s about it constantly and even dreamed about it once!
This book is very absorbing and I found it difficult to put down once I had started reading. The author slowly increases the tension as the story increases until it is almost unbearable – in a good way!The many twists and turns kept me firmly on my toes and I was unable to guess the last huge reveal which I always really enjoy. The ending was amazing and had me scrambling back through the pages to re-read certain sections.
Huge thanks to Rachel from Rachel’s Random resources for inviting me onto the blog tour and to One Chapter for my copy of this book via Netgalley. If you like unique, enthralling, creepy thrillers then I think you will enjoy this book.
