Take care of your family or it will turn against you...

Der Schreibstil von Emily Barr ist super angenehm zu lesen und teilweise auch zu bingen. Der Anfang und die Mitte waren sehr lang gezogen und ich hatte das Gefühl, dass die Geheimnisse zwischen dem Strandleben untergegangen sind. Das Ende war aber gut und alles kam so unerwartet. Trotzdem hatte ich nicht das Gefühl einen Thriller zu lesen. Die Geschichte war in der Sicht von Senara geschrieben, obwohl es viele Kapitel gab, in der aus der dritten Erzählerperspektive erzählt wurde. Jede Charaktere hatten ihr eigenes schweres Paket zu schleppen und es war schön in alle ein Einblick zu bekommen. Am Ende haben alle Personen ihr Happy End bekommen und es war schön die Entwicklung zu sehen... Danke!

Wenn man sich erstmal in diese Geschichte mit so viele Charakteren und vier (glaube ich) verschiedenen Point of views rein gearbeitet hat, macht es Spaß es zu lesen. Es ist ein Buch mit drei verschiedenen Zeitsprüngen und wesentlich komplexer als der Klappentext es einem verrät. Dennoch: ich mochte die Charaktere und das Buch. Es wird nicht für jeden etwas sein; aber ab einem gewissen Punkt konnte ich nicht mehr aufhören zu lesen, aber ganz klar: man benötigt gewiss mindestens 100 Seiten um reinzukommen. 😁

The book was too long in my opinion. The first 100 pages could've been made into 50 pages so the actual exciting part which happens after the first half of the book would happen faster. But after that it actually gets pretty exciting because the reader slowly gets to know all of the secrets. But that is also kind of the problem. When I purchased the book I thought that it is going to be a mystery book in which our main character is going to be finding clues and find out what actually happend. Instead we, the readers, find everything out through scenes that happend in the past. Nevertheless those scenes were really exciting to read and one of the best parts about the book. Also the relationships between the characters were kind of weird. Don't get me even started on Senara, Josie and Garreth. Like Garreth treats Josie like that and they all stay friends? Not just that, but also the girls saying "Well he's known for being a player?" Like hell no. Did not like him. Also the love relationships feel a little bit "random". Maybe because they are presented to the reader from half of the book so I guess there was not much time to build a real connection.
