Can someone please explain to me how Simone St. James does it? Because I cannot wrap my head around it.
SSJ is a genius and has easily become one of my all time favorite authors.
The Broken Girls was an incredible read (like everything else I've read by SSJ). It's one of those books that you never want to end.
I'm a sucker for alternating timelines and SSJ never disappoints in that area. Like most of her books, it contained the normal paranormal elements but they weren't overbearing. While I enjoy the paranormal, it's not something I would go out of my way to read about unless it's a book written by Simone St. James.
As always, the suspense and thrill are there throughout the entirety of the novel, but so are the heartwarming and wholesome moments as well.
Bonus points for a perfectly depicted New England setting!
