Ever
since the car accident that killed his twin brother, Marshall Windsor has been
consumed with guilt and crippled by secrets of that fateful night. He has only
one chance to make amends, to right his wrongs and set things right. He must
find a Thin Space—a mythical point where the barrier between this world and the
next is thin enough for a person to step through to the other side.
But, when a new girl moves into the house next door, the same house Marsh is
sure holds a thin space, she may be the key—or the unraveling of all his
secrets.
As they get closer to finding a thin space—and closer to each other—Marsh must
decide once and for all how far he’s willing to go to right the wrongs of the
living…and the dead.
When I plunged into THIN SPACE, it immediately
turned into one of those quick reads I’m always in awe of…Even though I was
trying to slow down, enjoy it, I would still fly through the chapters. (I could think I’d read five pages, then
glance at the page number and be shocked I’d read thirty.)
I love that quote from Hawthorne—the one about easy
reading being damn hard writing. (So,
soooo true.) I admire books that’re easy
for me to plow through, because I know firsthand how much work the author put
into it.
About halfway through the book, though, the pace
absolutely exploded. The last half of
this book is absolutely gripping. It was
one of those books you close and say, “Now, that
was cool.”
Great premise, great debut. Eagerly anticipating Casella’s next book.
It definitely sounds like it would hold my attention! I hadn't heard of it before, but I will have to check it out. Thanks for the review.
