The first half of this book resembles the characters Barbara (Geena Davis) and Adam (Alec Baldwin) from the original Beetlejuice movie. There is even a version of Juno (Sylvia Sidney). It also has the “Text of the Dead” instead of the “Handbook for the Recently Deceased”. However, the second half of the book was so different and took a nice turn into becoming a thriller! It was unique and suspenseful! You’ll find yourself invested in all the characters and will feel conflicted on who to root for in the end! 4 Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!
That was not nice of Caitlin Starling… I was very engaged in the welfare and care of the main character and the mysterious apparition that was introduced! But then I turned the page, and out of nowhere, the book ended! How can you write such a unique and intriguing story but just say “The End” and never tell us what happened? Is there a Book 2 coming and I just missed that notification? 2 Stars ⭐️⭐️!
3 things: (1) If you choose to read this book, please check trigger warnings… seriously, they are on every third page, (2) The Author is obsessed with cigarette smoke… if you read the story you will totally get that, and (3) The ending of this revenge story is completely OUTRAGEOUS in the best possible way! 5 Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!
A very intriguing book about not only being different, but also about survival. It has an important reminder to practice more kindness and less judgment of those that are not exactly like you or have different views. A great quote from the book that supports its energy is: “I am what God made me. What a boring life otherwise it might be.” 5 Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!
