Review Detail

I devoured Bittersweet In the Hollow down to the very last crumb. This is just the type of story I love - a scrumptious blend of thriller, horror, folklore, and mystery with a dash of romance. It had flavors of The May Queen Murders, another favorite book of mine.

The writing style and character development were consistent, seamless and engaging. World building and pacing were executed with effortless expertise. It kept me guessing until the very end! I was truly impressed by every aspect of this book and it is very hard to believe this author does not have more published work. This author is now absolutely on my radar and may become an auto-buy in the future.

Now I have a perfect hardback copy of Bittersweet In the Hollow for my favorite books collection. This book was high on my 2023 "To be read" list due to the gorgeous cover, appealing title, and exciting blurb, and it exceeded my expectations. I rarely give a five star review but Bittersweet In the Hollow wholeheartedly deserves it.
