Book Review: Roanoke Girls

Hi Everyone!

Today I am stopping by to share with you a review of a book that I found to be a very interesting read. In this book, we are given the opportunity to meet Lane who has faced some traumatic family experiences and the stories that go along with it. Her life is anything but easy.

In this book, the most appealing thing to me was the plot. The book kept me wanting to know what would happen next and I wanted to keep reading. I also appreciated the characters of this book because they had to face some tough realities about their lives as they knew them.

I would recommend this book for those who enjoy a good thriller, for those who like a complicated back story, but those who enjoy an interesting read. Thank you for the opportunity to read this book.

ABOUT THE ROANOKE GIRLS

NATIONAL BESTSELLER

“Roanoke girls never last long around here. In the end, we either run or we die.”

After her mother’s suicide, fifteen year-old Lane Roanoke came to live with her grandparents and fireball cousin, Allegra, on their vast estate in rural Kansas. Lane knew little of her mother’s mysterious family, but she quickly embraced life as one of the rich and beautiful Roanoke girls. But when she discovered the dark truth at the heart of the family, she ran…fast and far away.

Eleven years later, Lane is adrift in Los Angeles when her grandfather calls to tell her Allegra has gone missing. Did she run too? Or something worse? Unable to resist his pleas, Lane returns to help search, and to ease her guilt at having left Allegra behind. Her homecoming may mean a second chance with the boyfriend whose heart she broke that long ago summer. But it also means facing the devastating secret that made her flee, one she may not be strong enough to run from again.

As it weaves between Lane’s first Roanoke summer and her return, The Roanoke Girls shocks and tantalizes, twisting its way through revelation after mesmerizing revelation, exploring the secrets families keep and the fierce and terrible love that both binds them together and rips them apart.
