winecellarlibrary 's review for:
This Side of Tomorrow
by Sally White
This review is also available on my blog: Wine Cellar Library
First, I would like to thank Book Sirens and Sally White for providing me with a Kindle copy of this novel in exchange for an honest review.
I was grabbed initially by the beautiful cover art on this book. This is my first book from Book Sirens, and I am incredibly impressed. The premise of the novel is very reminiscent of [b:Twilight|41865|Twilight (Twilight, #1)|Stephenie Meyer|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1361039443l/41865._SY75_.jpg|3212258] and [b:Fallen|6487308|Fallen (Fallen, #1)|Lauren Kate|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1440619649l/6487308._SY75_.jpg|6678670], but with ghosts instead of vampires or fallen angels. In fact, I feel that this is written much better than the first books in either of those series. I would highly recommend this book to fans of either.
I don't know what it is, but I'm a sucker for books where the main character is torn between loving two different people. Rachel has a perfect boyfriend named Parker, but she is also in love with Parker's friend Noah, even though Noah died in a car accident before she ever met him. (Maybe it's just me, but I am definitely #teamnoah, no matter how inconceivable that relationship might be.)
Noah has taken it upon himself to protect Rachel from his younger brother Ethan, who also died in the wreck. Ethan is violent and obsessive and will hurt anyone who stands in the way of him getting what he wants: Rachel, all to himself.
There were a couple scenes that did not quite make sense with the narrative, such as Rachel meeting with a medium and being scared about what might happen, even though she can see and speak to spirits on her own. Otherwise, I truly enjoyed every minute and I really hope there may be a sequel in the future. Bravo, Sally White!
