Echoes in the Glass is a masterfully crafted YA book that intertwines two different storylines; one from the past and one in present day. I’ll admit I was intimidated at first. I thought it would be difficult for me to keep track of what was happening and when, but the author is so incredibly talented that it was as easy as watching a movie. Her storytelling is spot on, and had me constantly wondering what was going to happen next, what secrets were going to surface, and how the characters would be connected. The story hooked me straight away with its mystery, beautiful characters, paranormal element and the seamless blend of contemporary and historical genres.There’s so much depth to this story, it’s pretty much impossible for me to summarize intelligently without giving away more than I should. Stories of this caliber can’t be properly condensed into a slice of heaven. This is something each reader needs to experience. It’s the kind of story that leaves an imprint on your soul, something you won’t soon forget. All I can say is that I highly recommend Echoes in the Glass to all fans of contemp… no, I’m not limiting it to one genre, or even two. Let’s just say all fans of reading awesome books! If you read the synopsis and think it sounds like a great read.. multiply that by a hundred and you might be closer to how bloody brilliant this book actually is.
