Review: Will the Mist part enough for us to see the ending?
Rating: 4 out of 5

Very entertaining read with a killer cliff-hanger that will ensure you read the sequel when it comes out.This book deals with the stigma of being different (in this case having epilepsy) and how it impacts not only the person with the stigma but all those around them. The impact on each familial relationship is different, and all for different reasons. And since the protagonist is the one who has TLE (the type of epilepsy he was diagnosed with) we get to see how heavily it impacts him.But everything begins to change when his family up and moves to a new town, new state, and worst of all, a new school. Gabe dreads starting at a new school, but actually makes a friend on his very first day - almost as if they were fated to meet. And when Ellie shares The Woods with Gabe, she starts something beyond all imagining and far beyond their control. Is it all just a figment of the auras the Gabe's epilepsy causes, or could it actually be real?The plot twists and turns keep moving at a decent clip, as does the character development. Definitely looking forward to the sequel!!
