Sometimes, when you really love a book, it's hard to write a review of it. This is how it is for me with All the Colors of the Dark by Chris Whitaker. This book is over 600 pages, but I didn't want it to end. The story takes place in Missouri in 1975, Two best friends, Patch and Saint, are each a little bit odd, but they've got each other and that's enough for them. Tragedy strikes one day and separates them. What happens from there is an epic tale spanning decades. This story is part mystery, part thriller, and many parts friendship and found family. There are some great twists and turns but what sticks with me is the prevailing theme of devotion woven throughout the story. The characters in this book will be living in my head for a very long time. 5 stars for All the Colors of the Dark.

Huge thanks to Crown Publishing and NetGalley for a review copy of All the Colors of the Dark.
