there are some things she can't forget forever. Will the trip be able
to heal her heart and restore her memories?
I have a
few books from Rachel Hauck on my TBR pile. Out of the three, I decided
to start with this novel first. Boy, was I sadly disappointed. The book
was told from the perspective of four different people who all share a
connection with the house. They all had a connection with each other. I
was hardly able to build a bond or connection with any of the
characters. More than 75% into the book, I lost interest in the book.
There was nothing interesting going on that warranted me to waste more
time reading this novel. I think some portion of the book was poorly
written and felt choppy in some parts. For example, when Beck experience
a flashback of her memories and Beck believes God is speaking to her,
she stumbles around into Bruno's childhood home. Then Bruno and his
mother were talking about her and the incident like she can't overhear
them and it's an everyday occurrence. I am not sure why, but that whole
incident just felt weird to me. Overall, the storyline did not grab me
enough to want to finish this novel.
