An exercise in female rage

Nightwatching by Tracy Sierra

April 9, 2024 by Bea Pants Leave a Comment

  This book filled me with rage. You must read it! There’s no way for me to write a proper review without some spoilers, so be warned. I will do my best to keep them to a minimum. This appears to be Tracy Sierra’s first book, and I can’t wait to see what she does next. It’s a tight, well written thriller that I had a hard time putting down, but also wanted to throw across the room because, as I said, rage. A mother […]

Kamala, calls from Albuquerque to tell her that her father has been speaking with dead relatives. Her father, Thomas, is a brain surgeon. Amina thinks her mother might be exaggerating about her […]

Not long after getting married, Julie disappears without a trace during a hike and is eventually presumed dead. Elise, our narrator and the friend who is closest to Julie, does not believe she is dead. She is proven right when, two years after her disappearance, Julie appears back home with no apparent memory of her […]
