High school romance with a side of horror/mystery!

I really enjoyed this book!

Jane is a socially anxious high schooler who moves to her father’s home in Oregon to get away from a tragic family event. In Oregon, she is reunited with some childhood friends and meets the mysterious and attractive Aiden whom she falls in an uncertain love with. There is plenty of romantic tension between them and it seems a couple other boys may be jealous, adding to the tension.

The writing style is fun and easy to read, letting the reader discover and unravel past and current events and get to know the motivations of the main characters. There is plenty of romantic interest, action, and intrigue to engage the reader and leave them wanting more. The book will appeal to anyone wanting to read young adult romance and action horror/fantasy.

I look forward to the next book of the trilogy!

Great read!

I really enjoyed reading this book. The unique premise and mystery kept me wanting to read more. The author’s writing style was unique as well and brought me into the story and the characters’ lives. It was unlike anything I’ve read before and had interesting twists that took me where I didn’t expect. I’m looking forward to the release of the others in this series. The next book is from Aidan’s POV, which is an intriguing concept. Well done.

Couldn’t put it down

In this coming-of-age novel, Kathy fantastically gave us a look into the tumultuous life of a teen girl and her family trying to learn how to live their lives in their new “normal”. After suffering abuse and unsupportive friendships, Kathryn must learn how to cope and move forward with her life and the relationships in it. I felt that the situations that Kathryn dealt with were so much more realistic than the majority of the other books I have read; from dealing with her emotions to actually talking about her experience with a psychiatrist, this book can truly give hope to those who have experienced similar circumstances. It was an excellent read, and I can’t wait to see what else comes from this author!!!

Highly Recommend

Between the Trees holds such an incredibly honest and raw truth of coming of age in rural America. It is a struggle almost anyone can relate to that takes the reader on a journey of struggle, forgiveness and finding faith in love and the ability to trust again. It is incredibly beautiful, vivid, full of life, color and at times I could almost hear the music coming out of this new classic novel!! Kudos to the author!!

Highly Suspenseful, Well-Written Murder Mystery

This highly suspenseful, well-written murder mystery opens with a grizzly, horrific murder that gives nightmares to several people not related to the murder in any way. Likable, believable characters draw the reader into the nightmare, while the baffled but competent police work feverishly to stop the killer before he kills again. I highly recommend this book. Ms. Drewa, write faster!
