I liked the story and was eager to find out who else knew what happened. However, I was very disappointed with the ending and big reveal. I feel it didn’t do the rest of the story any justice. Teens living with some disfunctional adults can not have a happy ending. The characters weren’t as developed as they should have been. There really wasn’t a character I really liked.
very good – i would give it 10
I still think it is one of the best I’ve read lately
I really enjoyed this book and would recommend it
would have rated higher! loved style/story plot & found easy to maintain/follow even with time jumps which I don’t usually like Characters became believable & plot plausable
This was a great book. The author kept my interest the whole time. It was an exciting story with a
unexpected twist.
Pretty poor.
I enjoyed this book very much, it moved along at a steady pace & I liked the way the characters were built from childhood up to adulthood. The ending had quite a twist!
I wish it ended differently
Plodding
Forced plot twists. 5 hours I’ll never get back!
This was a wonderful book. The only thing I didn’t like about it was that the story would go to back to that summer, now, and before that summer. I get lost in those type of books. This one wasn’t too bad. Loved the characters. I figured out “who dunnit” just before the book revealed it. I enjoyed the book; had to make myself put it down.
This was a look into a unique time and place where everyone minded their own business even when the problems were big.
Some friends meet with some eerie being at a cemetery. It follows!
I thought I had the plot figured out, but found I was way off base. A great read.
Wow what a book. Twisted until the end!!!
This was such a good suspenseful mystery. It starts with a group of friend who lived together on a street they called The Edge. They are all different but are friends since they are neighbors. One summer night their lives changed drastically. They all held onto a secret and went their separate ways. But they were forever connected. But now they are called back together as adults because someone else knows their secret. The story goes through their lives then and now. We slowly learn about them and the author gives us clues onto to what happened. When the truth of it all was revealed I was blown away. I was totally fooled on what I thought the truth was! I couldn’t put this book down. I was listening every chance I had. I needed to know what happened and what was going to happen. This narrator did a great job. His voice really added the suspense to this story. I can’t suggest this enough to mystery and suspense fans. Really anyone who loves a good story that is full of surprises will enjoy this story. It’s a must read/listen! I definitely will be checking out more from this author.
Excellent word play in the title. I’m the kind of reader who can be enticed to buy a book based only on the title. Good job in letting me know what time period I was reading about. Thanks for a plot I haven’t come across before. But please pay attention to proofreading.
Scary book. Real page turner with lots of twists. Definitely recommend
OK
this book was an easy read- a little slow in parts but was a rainy day afternoon kind of book.
