My Review
'An emotional yet enjoyable read'
So I'll be honest, like I always am. This one didn't really grab me at the start. I was initially drawn in only to find myself struggling to be interested when the writing style changed to one I'm not familiar with. The story is told as if the protagonists are talking to each other but its so heavily detailed and drawn out it feels over embellished for what is supposed to be discussion between characters. Once I got over this issue though, looked past the new style of story telling that I hadn't yet become accustomed to I did actually start to enjoy the story and enjoy the writing. So top tip, if you like me find the style at first a little different and off putting don't give up. Keep going!
After a few more chapters I got into it, I'm so glad I didn't stop. I really enjoyed the content, and once I was past my initial concerns the writing too. It was obviously well researched as the travel element was very well detailed. I really felt like I got to know the two main characters personalities well.
Did I guess the ending? Well yes, I guessed the main plot but there were some other interesting twists that I didn't guess and the fact that I had guessed the main plot right from the offset and was pretty sure I knew what was coming didn't mean I enjoyed reading it any less. I like the ending too, it rounded the story off nicely.
I will certainly be on the look out now for other S.D Robertson titles to try.
Thank you to Avon Books, Harper Collins and S.D Robertson for gifting me this proof copy in exchange for an honest review.
