My Review

5/5 Stars

Adam’s life is plagued with difficulties. Whether that be his abusive parents or the creepy house that his grandmother lives in. He’s a target for bullies, but he tries to forget all of that. He’s a violin prodigy. After encountering a strange doll, things take a bizarre turn for him, plunging him into dark hallucinations and visions.

As the story explains each cycle of Adam’s life, it adds another layer to who he is. Even he has questions about who he is deep down, and the more he remembers, the less sure he is that he wants to know.

This is a book with plenty of plot twists and phenomenal character development. Happy to see this is part of a series.

Narration was smooth, working easily with Adam’s character to truly put the icing on the cake that is this audiobook.

This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.

Proud author responsible for Dead by Morning and The Council, fascinated by the dark and macabre. Stephen King is her all time inspiration mixed in with a little bit of Eminem and some faint remnants of the works of Edgar Allen Poe. When she began writing, she started in horror but it somehow drifted into thriller. She loves the 1988 movie Heathers. She was born and raised in Michigan but traveled across the country to where she currently resides in Texas.
