My thoughts
First off, I want to
thank the author, Steffie Dawn, for giving me the opportunity to review her
book, In Her Shadows. This book was unlike anything that
I have read before. From the start, I thought that this book was
going to be paranormalish, but it was not. What it is though, is a
gripping and heartwarming story of two mentally ill young adults struggling
with their disease and the team of doctors trying to help them lead a normal
life.
The author has provided
the reader an insightful look into mental illness and at the same time a
heart-warning romance of two young adults all in story that will tug at your
heart strings. While the story is interesting, the last thirty or so
pages really were my favorite. The story really picked up and I was
on the edge of my seat the entire time. This is a captivating story
that will draw you in immediately and continue to hold your interest until the
very end. I totally fell in love with Anya and Chester’s story and I
know you will too.
My rating: 3.75
stars out of 5
