A review by carlogunslinger
Midnight Rain by James Newman
5.0
A boy witnessed a horrendous act. An act that would end his innocence. An act that went down spiral from there.
Thought provoking introduction. Carefully paced, tension packed, twists and turns that leaves you wondering what happens next and at the same time never shying away from exploring topics such as family relationships.
Newman's Midnight Rain hits home on so many levels. Even though you'll ready know who survives (and don't) at the end, it doesn't take away the tension you'll feel while reading this wonderful piece of a book.
Another thing why I liked this book so much, is that when the narrator invited me to a trip down memory lane he doesn't just say 'Come' instead he holds my hand and never lets go. Especially that darn library scene - only difference is that our Librarian is cool.
