Silence by Natasha Preston
2.0
I usually stay away from romance, but I needed it for my 2015 Reading Challenge. The premise of the book seemed interesting, but it just became extremely confusing. The narration was constantly switching without warning. Also, the plot deals with a very heavy topic (rape), but seems to beat around the bush with it. Preston just seems to not think her readers are 'ready' to hear about such a serious topic.
The book is set in England, and being from the US, some things just kinda threw me off. A 15 year old was ready to move out and settle down with an (almost) 18 year old. She (the 15 year old girl) refuses to talk because of a problem that no one knows about (the we can assume rape).
Also! This book is apart of a series and I had no idea. There was no indication whatsoever. The ending of the book just kinda stopped. There were so many questions left to the reader.
I dunno... this is just a weird story. I really don't recommend it at all.
