My Review of:
Falling From the Sky
by Joshua Scribner
**4.3/5.0**
Joshua Scribner has a talent for writing exceptionally captivating characters.
While the setting, along with the mystery of what was actually happening in the world around them, was what first drew me into this story, I soon came to learn that I was starting to develop a strong emotional attachment to Toby and his dad. The character building is the aspect of this story that shines brightest, and left me wanting to read more even after I had reached the story's conclusion.
I started off this new year the same way as I did the last; by reading a self published book by an author that I was not familiar with. Since this has paid off for the second year in a row, I may make it a tradition moving forward. I will also be looking into Joshua's other writing, because I am interested to see if he has applied this same level of character building in other stories with different settings.
It's a definite recommendation from me! This is available on Kindle Unlimited, but I was also able to purchase a paperback copy for less than $4 on Amazon. Being that is is around 100 pages long, the novella won't take up a lot of your time, but I have a feeling it will be one that I still reflect back on throughout the year.
I will also point out that there are a few sentences that have grammatical errors, but it was never to the point where it became frustrating. It's very rare that I allow something like that throw me off anyway, especially when I am heavily invested in the story.
