A Little Bird Told Me by Marianne Holmes

A Little Bird Told Me – Marianne Holmes

40798758

Ebook provided by NetGalley for review. Thank you.

Read Oct 19

This is a dual timeline novel with chapters set in the summer of 1976 when main character Robyn was 9 and September 1988 when she is 21. In 1976 a stranger shows up and gives Robyn a present, a small thing that sets off a chain of events that leads to her family leaving town. 1988 and Robyn has returned with brother Kit to try and find out the truth.

This was almost a DNF in parts for me. The setting was dull, the pacing was slow, and I barely cared for the characters. I mostly kept reading for the big reveal which I now can’t remember. I don’t know if it was that spectacular as far as reveals go. Overall the book was a bit of a let-down.

2/5 stars
