Rounded up from around 4.5 stars ⭐️ I’ve never before read a book like this one but I absolutely loved it.

Two young sisters find themselves caught up in a whirlwind when a sudden loud noise alters their lives. The noise follows the perspectives of five of the people caught up in this mysterious anomaly.

I’ve been desperately hunting for a spooky/horror book for the autumn months and the beginning of this book absolutely gave me that. I didn’t want to put it down, but was also nervous to keep reading! I absolutely love books from multiple points of view when they are done well. This book did it seamlessly and it really helped add depth to the complicated scenario. Seeing the anomaly from all different perspectives was so enjoyable.

I’ve never before read a book that seemed to combine so many genres but it worked so well. It also didn’t feel completely outlandish which added an additional ominous layer to the book. The only reason I deducted half a star was because I wasn’t fully sold on the ending, I don’t know what I had expected but I almost wanted something slightly more. I also would have loved to have known all of the characters a little deeper, they almost seemed one dimensional. Luckily, I loved the storyline so much that these little gripes didn’t do much to dampen my enjoyment!

I would recommend this book to any horror/thriller fans who fancy an added layer of sci-fi. I want to thank Netgalley, Random House UK and James Patterson & J.D. Barker for allowing me to read this book and give my personal thoughts.
