Brilliantly Written.
This can be a
difficult read emotionally as it focuses on main character Astrid. She is an alcoholic who is trying
to rebuild her life and stay sober. It is very well written and has some very
good descriptions of the struggles of someone with Alcoholism getting through
the day. It also has the twists and turns of what has happened in Astrid's past
that is still haunting her.
As she tries to
rebuild her life she also meets Josh and they soon become a couple but she
hasn’t shared her past with him. I found this was a side note to fill the story
up a bit but there wasn’t as much substance or realism for me. I just didn’t
see the relationship develop the way I would have expected from the rest of the
storyline.
I did enjoy the plot
and history coming back to haunt us fits so well in with the character. Some of
the twists where expected but it doesn’t change it from being a great read. I
didn’t want to put it down.
Due out 5th December!
