My Review
Throughout the story I felt varying degrees of tension and there was an underlying feeling of unease that I couldn't shake as Jenna digs into Callie's life. Louise Jensen did a fantastic job of keeping me on the edge of my seat as the story unravels and things are revealed. My interest was kept completely and I loved the way the story was revealed bit by bit.
I became totally immersed in Jenna's life and I really didn't want to put the book down. To the point of missing my stop on the bus! Yes, I know it's a little embarassing (maybe I shouldn't have admitted that) but the story had grabbed me that much I pretty much forgot where I was, oops!
Jenna is a complex and well developed character. Louise Jensen really brought her to life and it felt as if I was experiencing everything with her.
From every snatched moment of reading I thoroughly enjoyed this thrilling story. I wish I could have read The Gift in one go but then real life gets in the way. I couldn't wait to find out the truth and the premise was so interesting. Jenna is such an intriguing character everything about The Gift made it a such a gripping story!
This book kept me on my toes all the way through especially as the tension builds and builds. There were plenty of moments when I didn't trust anyone. I would think I had things sussed and then I was like okay maybe not. I am so glad I picked up this book I can't recommend it enough!
The one word I can use to describe The Gift is simply - Captivating!
Five stars from me!
