I like American novels. I especially like the ones set outside the big cities, in a small town I have never visited which makes me feel like I have traveled to a faraway world I don’t know at all.
I remember this book was so engaging I couldn’t put the book down.
The reader engages with the fictional character in the book, but in this book, the main character Mattie engages with girl found drowned in the lake, through the letters this girl wrote which Mattie discovers.
So as a reader, you are engaging with a second character through a character – if you see what I mean – which makes it so interesting because you feel like you are looking at the world through someone else’s mind.
