The Thing with Feathers by McCall Hoyle
4.0
Okay so actual rating: 4.5/5 stars.
What I’ll say about this is that I really did enjoy this. It was interesting to read a story about someone with epilepsy. You don’t see it a lot in books so it was nice to see it represented. I really liked Emilie as a main character. I liked Chatham and Ayla. But Hitch, I LOVED the poochy so much!! So cute!
My main issue is that I feel as though the ending of the book was rushed a bit too much. I wish it was a bit longer and we could really see everything happening more drawn out and everything. Emilie got over things that were troubling her so much faster than you’d really ever see in real life which was a little much.
I loved the setting though! I went on vacation a few years back to the Outer Banks and I was in Nags Head and it’s so cool to have it set there and all. I loved it down there so much with all the houses on their stilts and how it took forever to get places.
