Thank you to the publisher, NetGalley, and Allie Reynolds for an eARC of The Swell!
Kenna surprises her best friend Mikki in Australia just in time for her wedding to a man Kenna has never met before. What comes next is nothing she ever could’ve expected. Mikki and Jack take Kenna to Sorrow Bay where she meets The Tribe. Does she join The Tribe in order to stay safe?
What I liked:
-Felt very much like a “cult” story
-Unreliable characters
-A lot of character backstory
What I disliked:
Nothing. Literally nothing.
I will be reading all of Allie Reynolds’ books from this point forward. Incredible writing, incredible story, and kept me intrigued until the very end!
