Sarah Guillory

I really enjoyed this book! I thought it was going to be a sappy romance, which I have nothing against, but it ended up being a good balance of romance and mystery. There were a couple of people at the beginning that it took a while for me to figure out who they were because of the limited descriptions, but overall, it was pretty amazing.

There aren't very many books that I've read lately that have made me not want to put them down, but this was one. I was quite aggravated with life for making me put it down so often.

I have to say I predicted the "twist" pretty early, although I wasn't sure the whole time, but there was a twist to the twist, which made it even more interesting.

I'm not going to lie, I was not expecting this book to be this good. I just hope she has a lot more stories in her and a long and wealthy career as a novelist!… (más)

RECLAIMED is both a kiss and a slap. There is all this sweet romantic tenderness mixed with addiction and ricocheting tragedy. It's a book that explores numerous relationships--both romantic and familial--and does them so deftly that it's almost impossible to believe this is from a debut author. It's that good.

And the writing. It's really lovely with atmospheric metaphors and accessibly lyrical phrasing. It's beautiful to read the way Sarah Guillory crafts her sentences. But more than the writing, it's the relationships between the three protagonists that makes RECLAIMED resonate so strongly. They are messy and reckless and mingled with often thoughtless decisions. It's also painfully real and honest. Jenna, Luke, and Ian feel as real as any character I've ever read.

RECLAIMED is truly a bittersweet story with completely engrossing characters, a twisty heartbreaking romance, and an ending that left me choked up and smiling...and ready to let this book reclaim me all over again.… (más)
