A review by chantale
Magnified World by Grace O'Connell

2.0

A young woman grapples with her mother's suicide and starts having 'black outs' and hallucinations which can't be directly linked to her grief. The family owns a 'new age' shop and some of these mystical elements find their way into her therapy with her counselor. Gil a mysterious man who is or is not a figment of her imagination or psychoses seems a dark presence set to derail her with promises of helping her learn more about her mother and ending her blackouts. He at some point becomes her lover. There is a lot left for the reader to interpret for themselves in this book.
