One Year Later was an interesting psychological thriller that looks into loss, betrayal and hidden secrets. The first thing that drew me into this book was the mystery of finding out exactly what happened one year ago. The opening pages had me intrigued and could wait to get into the meat of the book.
Although well written and full of twists that will have you guessing till the end, there was still something missing which made me feel like the book didn’t quite have me gripped as I thought it would.
What I did like about this book was the way the story is told through two different perspectives, one from the mother and the second from the uncle. I found this quite unique as normally you would only get the perspective from the mother and occasionally the father as well. I also really liked how the different grief was shown. The book does make the reader feel sad at times and because of this the characters felt very believable, and it makes you feel sorry for what they are going through.
I may not have enjoyed it as much as I thought I would but it was definitely an interesting read and one I’m glad I decided to
