The book is set in a library which being a book geek I absolutely loved! Set in two parts, present day and Ruby’s past it is certainly a rollercoaster of a ride, packed full of suspense and emotions, one that will surprise you and ultimately delight you!
For me it was Ruby’s past that made this book for me, she is a great protagonist who’s inner dialogues were so realistic that I could hear myself saying and thinking the same things, I swear her voice became and sounded like my own at times, and if nothing else, Ruby is certainly not a quitter.
This book deals with an emotional theme that is portrayed perfectly and handled with care. The setting of the book is fairly unique to this genre which is great, the characters are all well fleshed out, personable and relatable. It may not be the fastest paced book to begin with but the second half of the book makes it completely worth it. This is the first book I have read by this author and after reading this one I will definitely keep an eye out for in the future.
The Stopping Place was published back in Jan 2018 so i am a bit late in discovering it but i am glad that I did. You can grab a copy now and it is even available at the moment to read for free with Amazon’s Kindle Unlimited!… (mais)
