The Dark Place

De: Britney Lewis

Narrado por: Shayna Small

You can only hide from your nightmares for so long. Seventeen-year-old Hylee Williams didn’t ask to disappear. She didn’t ask to move from Kansas City, Kansas out to the suburbs in Missouri. But she did disappear, and not only that, but when she vanished from our world, she materialized in a dark, twisted version of the night that changed her life forever: the night her older brother went missing. Just as Hylee realizes this moment could be the key to unraveling the truth about her brother, she’s yanked away from the dark place back to our world. Craving a sense of normalcy, she goes to a party with her best friend—where she meets Eilam Roads. Tall, handsome, and undeniably, inexplicably familiar, Hylee can’t help the pull she feels towards him. It’s a classic teen girl-meets-boy situation, until it happens again. She disappears, right in front of him. Together, Hylee and Eilam investigate the truth about time, space, and reality, with Hylee increasingly convinced her time travel holds the key to saving her brother. But the more they learn, the more Hylee begins to see darkness lurking in her world—and in herself. Britney S. Lewis’s sophomore novel combines the quotable relatability, swoony romance, and emotional resonance of John Green with the surrealist horror imagery and razor-sharp wit of Jordan Peele. At once haunting and enchanting and entirely unforgettable.

Love itttt

I’m new to the horror genre but I absolutely love this book❤️the ending was my favorite, I’m still a romance reader at heart!!

On my TOES!

This has easily become one of my favorite books now. I love the story. The suspense and the twist and turns. Great book

The suspense

I really enjoy reading this book. The suspense was great. The depth was what I really needed to read about at this time.

Where the journey ends

I loved this book so much. I read it with my hubby, who's into Sci-Fi, Coroline, and Marvel. We both enjoyed it and were not expecting that ending. Eilem was so sweet and warm with Hylee. I loved how he was always there with a cup of coffee, trying to help Hylee. I found myself getting creeped out but also swooning at times. I highly recommend it. Britney handles the topic of grief in such a unique and beautiful way.

The way she explained the way she felt stood out… very descriptive…

At first, I was struggling to get into it.. Thank goodness I hung in there! It was well worth it. The story got better and better as it progressed. I almost dropped a few tears near the end. She brought this story together nicely. Once you’re half way in you’ll find the concept as well as the story line quite intriguing.
