Ms. Devlin is a master at writing novels with intricate and challenging family dynamics, overlapping layers of intrigue and suspense, gut wrenching twists and turns that pull the reader in and engage them right up till the very end of the story.

Right Where You Left Me starts out so lovingly that you know that something just has to collapse and it soon does. The trauma of this family crisis becomes more intense as the story progresses. In addition, the author's portrayal of Charlotte and her Mother's relationship as well as their Russian roots really enhances this hauntingly beautiful story.

I loved reading every page of this book! The intricacies of the plot, the cast of well developed characters and the experience of a budding young love amidst a tragic family event just grabbed my heart and wouldn't let go.

I received this book for free. A favorable review was not required and all views expressed are my own. Thank you to Ms. Devlin, Atheneum Books and Edelweiss for the opportunity to read and review this book. ( )
