Amazing book
My Favorite set of books this is, the first gets you really into it as its a take on post apocalyptic America that I certainly had never read before, the personalisation of it (the way its written in first person) makes it feel so much closer to the heart so that when Katniss hurts, you feel it you really feel her struggles etc. Its extremely well written and I can't reccomend it enough.

This one is told by Daystar's pov. Unlike the other three books it is in first person. As the conclusion of the series, it surprisingly takes a little while to get going. However it doesn't feel rushed. It doesn't take itself too seriously, albeit she does stress the importance of being polite.

I felt like this book was going to be an epic journey of self discovery and redeeming family and resolving past mistakes, but it was more like reading the journal of a boring person. A person with an interesting life, mind you, but the person himself was boring. I can’t even remember the main character’s name. It felt disconnected and random, jumping around and telling snapshots and things that happened, but no real plot. A bunch of things does not equal plot.
I felt this way the first time I tried listening to it, and so I put it down. Then one Saturday I was bored so I tried again and I got the same vibe, so I quit. I got about 6 or 8 chapters in.

I liked the book, but I didn't love it. Told in alternating voices and time-lines, first-person for Amber in the late 60's and third-person for Lorna circa 2000. Amber's voice definitely had the edge as Lorna's felt more distant, probably due to being in third-person, so her story didn't have much of a punch for me. Also, her connection to Black Rabbit Hall felt too pat, too obvious, and not surprising in the least. One thing, as silly as it might seem, that bothered me was the casual mention of texts and wi-fi. Easy to overlook in this day and age, but they just weren't common in the late nineties/early aughts. Otherwise, it was an easy, if predictable read.

I received a copy of this book from Netgalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
This book was incredibly creepy! Told in first person it explores a '90's childhood and the life of a child therapist.
There's some really neat twists that I didn't see coming.
I highly recommend this book.
