Revisado: 08-01-21
A classic! This novel kept me on the edge of my seat with anticipation in various ways. This is the first time I've read/listened to a book from this author — overall, I really enjoyed it! I love the way it was written, I could stay engaged with the story without being shell shocked into staying. As for the narrator.. Somebody give her a raise!! Phenomenal! Her performance + accent = perfect fit for the characters/background of this book. The narration definitely contributed to my enjoyment of this book. I will be purchasing more books from this author in the near future. I highly recommend!

A Rollercoaster

**spoiler-free review**
I've read books by this author previously, so I expected this to be good, for the most part it was! The duel stories started a little slow, but once the pace began to pick up it became much like a rollercoaster! I love how the author fearlessly delve into heavier topics. The faith elements in the book was personal/relatable and flowed well for the most part. I must say though, the quality in one of the stories/timelines is what did it for me! it carried the book in such a way where it could've easily been phenomenal as a standalone. The other story/timeline (in my opinion) was ok.. just didn't hold up in comparison to the one; during my listen, I constantly anticipated for it to switch back. If I could rate the stories/timelines separately I'd give 5 stars for one and a 2.5 or 3 for the other. Overall though, I do recommend this book!
AUDIBLE NARRATION:
Initially it seemed to drag, a mix of the story building and the narrator reading slowly. It took time, but as the story progressed the quality/pace of the narration did too. Overall the narrator did well! This was my first audible book, and this got me hooked to audible!
(Sidenote: If you're looking to intensify for more of an eerie read, listen nighttime!)
