DRB Reviews...The Storm by Rachel Hawkins
Rating: 5 stars Firstly, who doesn't love a Gothic thriller! This Gothic thriller is mixed with the exhilarating and terrifying power of hurricanes. Imagine, decades after being accused of murder, returning to your hometown with a true-crime writer to clear your name. Only to be faced with yet again another raging storm brewing. The past quickly collides with the present as this "tell-all" memoir reveals buried secrets that should remain buried. This book was so full of suspense and excitement, I really shouldn't have read a hurricane story while on vacation on a tropical island lol! (But that made it all more exciting!) What a beautifully engaging and unique story line. Hawkins knows how to weave the past into the present in such a natural way; I love her dual-timeline narratives, they always keep me turning the pages! I am sure the scandals she was writing about in The Storm, had nothing to do with the page turning (lol) it was her wonderful writing style. I loved the main character. She was someone I could relate too, having lost everything and sticking with her roots to rebuild. Once again, Hawkins wrote a huge winner here...it was worth the wait! www.dawnrodger.ca #drbreviews #rachelhawkins #thestorm #bookstagrammer #BookTok
