I am subscribed to this site called 'Book Bub' where they give you free or discounted Ebooks on various websites. This was available on kobo, and having kobo I gave it a shot. I am ever so glad I did because what unfolded from then was brilliant.
This is about a 24 year old Rose, whose mother was a controlling religious fanatic who thought Rose had a demon within her. When in reality she had visions of ordinary things like broken taps or a lost dog. But when one day she sees herself dead she is shook at her end, thus starting her independence from her mother.
This is what I entered the book with but oh my it spiralled out wonderfully. It didn't go where I was expecting it to go, but I'm glad it did. Yes some things may be far fetched towards the end, but it's a fiction book, aren't things meant to be fantastical and impossible?
I (somehow) managed to read this in one sitting because it gripped me from the very beginning.
10/10 would definitely recommend
