From a Shadow Grave by Andi C. Buchanan
2.0
I was provided with an advanced copy of the novel and I'm leaving this review voluntarily.
When I picked up this story, I was expecting to get just one story. Instead, the reader is told four. The first story is about Phyllis and her murder. The remaining three stories show different possibilities for how her story could've ended differently. I enjoyed the way the author crafted three incredibly distinct directions where the story could go. I also appreciated the time-travel and alternate universe aspects of the book.
While I liked the ideas for this book, it was written in second person which I'm not the biggest fan of. It made it hard for me to connect to the characters in the narrative. The narrative made it hard for me to get into the story overall as well. I thought each story in and of itself was okay, but not much stood out to me. I'd give this book a solid 2.5 Stars
