A review by abigailbat
Feathered by Laura Kasischke
4.0
Their spring break trip to Mexico is supposed to be a fun way for Anne and Michelle to blow off some steam, but then things go horribly, horribly wrong.
The suspense builds and builds and by the time I reached the last third of this book I could not put it down. I enjoyed the suspense and the lush descriptions of the tropical jungle. The narration switches between Anne's voice in the past-tense first-person and Michelle's in the present-tense third-person. Although I understand why the author did that, the switch was jarring every time and I wish Ms. Kasischke had at least kept them in the same tense. Even with that flaw, I found the book to be enjoyable.
