A review by seymone
The Roanoke Girls by Amy Engel
4.0
First and foremost, this novel can trigger emotions if you are a victim of sexual abuse. With that said, the author deals with said sexual abuse in a tasteful way.
Why did I pick it up?
I picked up this book due to recommendation from a booktuber that I follow. I am starting to realize that I do not like to know about a book before reading. I like going in blindly.
Describe the book in 5 words
Perverse, Incestuous, Sick, Compelling and Fast Paced
Who would like The Roanoke Girls
Hmmm. Let me ponder that.
Anyone that likes a good psychological thriller.
Are there illustrations?
None.
Overall thoughts
Overall, I really enjoyed this book. Its a good psychological thriller. Its really difficult for me to review this book without spoilers because I want to go in depth about the characters and their experiences. * I don't believe in spoilers. *
My one caveat about this novel is, I wanted to get a better look into the minds of the grandmother and grandfather. A lot of the storyline had to do with them, but you really only get a sense of them through the eyes of others.
I would recommend.
