The Winter People

3.5 ⭐

This book had so much potential to be a 4.5-5 star read. There were areas of the book that seemed over explained/redundant and other areas that I felt opposite. The ending was so good but I felt when Alice was explaining why things were happening she didn't explain everything well.

Katherine and Candace as characters were the literal worst. Katherine was at least well done and believable – just the type of person that being around them makes your head hurt. Candace, on the other hand, seemed off her rocker and as though there was more to her story that we'd find out later (spoilers: we never do).

JM however does an AMAZING job at creating the scene and I feel it really makes the whole book so much better. Her description of Candace's home from afar vs up close had to have been my favorite part of the book and almost gave me chills while reading it.
