I'm a huge fan of Adrienne and she has yet to disappoint me. I know, it's like I'm asking for trouble but this was such an amazing book.

There are so many things going on in this book and Young can weave the story so beautifully. June is from a long line of "cursed" women. Her grandmother has just died and left some cryptic clues for her. She starts to unravel the past and the journey she's taken on is wild. As she's learning about her past, she's starting to realize things are not at all what she's been told/knows. I found the murder mystery was woven into the story in such a natural way too. The atmosphere that Young created made you feel like you were living it.

I loved June and her story. I don't want to get into the plot too much because there's a lot of things I don't want to spoil. Just trust me that it is never boring and the writing keeps you so immersed that you don't want to stop. This did take me a while to read but because you have to take your time with it. It's not a bad thing, just know you need to read at a slower pace. There are a little for everyone with a love story, murder mystery, and some magical realism throughout the story.

Overall, this was a great book. I think this is a story that I'm going to remember for a long time. It's such a beautifully written book with details that will stay with you. It's one of Young's strongest books to date. I cannot wait to see what she does next!!
