Review
As I said above…this book ruined me. I read this while in the car on a trip and I found myself flying through it, tears welling in my eyes.
The storyline for this novel was captivating and very well thought out. We are taken through some turmoil in the relationship and the main character’s personal life but yet he continues to search for more tapes. The way the story is written, it begs you to turn the page. There are twists that I never saw coming and man did they get me good. I fell hard for the characters, wanting things to work out for them despite their circumstances.
It is so hard to put how amazing this book into actual words. It has a Twilight Zone feel to it but the main plot was romance based and not sexual love but true, deep, magical love. The kind that makes your heart both ache and swell at the same time. Never would I have ever picked this book up on my own but I am so grateful that I did. This is a story that will stick with me forever, one of the unforgettable ones. The ending was so moving and honestly, I did not expect that.
If you are looking for a short but moving novel to read, pick this one up. You won’t regret doing so.
