5.0
The Willow Rise Six has joined the selected few books that belong to a genre I don't usually read but totally blew my mind.
While the plot is straightforward with a few exciting moments, it's in the characters' construction where this story shines. Told from multiple POVs and with constant flashbacks, the story weaves five different perspectives from heavily troubled characters. The sheer beauty of the writing kept me glued to the pages of what I believe to be this author's debut novel.
A true masterpiece from start to finish.
