The Uninvited by Cat Winters
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This may sound a bit forward and weird, but this author’s stories I could just swallow whole, because I can’t get enough of her wonderful story telling and read fast enough to discovery another gem that she created.
The main character was such a mysterious reading pleasure to get to know. She was easy to identify with, partly because I saw a little bit of myself in her, but mostly because the author’s ability to create multidimensional characters is just absolutely amazing. The interaction she created between the protagonist and the secondary characters is superbly executed. She is part of the story, yet the main focus of the story.
The plot is mysterious, hauntingly delicious (and I never use this word outside the want to describe food) and just so beautifully told that I wished this story could have been twice as long, I did not want it to end.
The writing, as always, was delightful. The author has great talent to take the reader by their hand and just guide them through the story with such ease and love for the craft of storytelling.
The Uninvited is a hauntingly beautiful story that will stay with the reader long after the last page has been read. Anyone, who loved the author’s previous two novels will relish in this new story and will not be able to wait for her next publication.
