linda_h 's review for:
The Silent Waters
by Brittainy C. Cherry
Finally! I have been wanting to try this author for the second time for so long now. It has been YEARS since I read Loving Mr. Daniels... and though that book wasn’t a favorite, I knew this author had so much potential.
This one was so good! It wasn’t a five star for me, for a couple of reasons, but I really enjoyed it.
I went in totally blind (as usual) and had no idea what I was in for. I did not even read the blurb, which is my favorite way to read.
Here’s what I loved:
Brooks and Maggie.
The band.
Cheryl.
The writing.
How well developed Maggie’s character was- all without dialogue.
Maggie and Brooks at the cabin.
How special this book was to the author!
Here’s what I struggled with:
How long Maggie struggled with her past. I kept waiting for some kind of change. It was too long to be believable.
How therapy/outside help wasn’t really mentioned as part of her recovery (as far as I can remember anyway).
Super interesting coincidence while reading this book in the middle of a pandemic. (I think Ms. Cherry might have a touch of psychic ability.) This is an excerpt from a letter Brooks was writing to Maggie:
January 5th, 2020.
Magnet,
The band is in Tokyo this week......There’s this nasty cold going around, and I have fallen as the next victim to the plague....
That part made me pause. This book was written in 2016. Kinda spooky.
Anyway, overall I really enjoyed this book and look forward to more from this author!
