What the River Knows by Isabel Ibañez
@isabelwriter09 [Pub Date: Oct 31, 2023]
This. Book.
So many twists and turns-some predictable, some expected, others devastating and surprising.
With the recklessness of youth and inexperience, Inez travels across the world from all she’s known in Argentina to the wonders of Egypt. Her parents spent more time there than anywhere else and now that they are gone, she wants answers…and to be connected to what they loved most. What she didn’t expect was Tio Ricardo’s reaction nor his lackey Mr. Hayes.
So much sassy banter, sadness, and laugh out loud moments you’ll be pulled down the Nile in the adventure of a lifetime.
I cannot tell you how many times I fell asleep reading this because I could not put it down and make myself go to bed. Just one more page, moment, chapter. 😅
Thanks @Netgalley for the eARC! Definitely a fav of the year.
