All the Colors of the Dark: A Read with Jenna Pick

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - From the author of We Begin at the End comes a soaring thriller and an epic love story that "hits like a sledgehammer . . . an absolutely must-read novel" (Gillian Flynn, author of Gone Girl).

"Kept me frantically turning the pages and somehow made me cry at the end . . . Brava!"--Kristin Hannah, author of The Women

"Melds tense suspense with a powerful exploration of devotion, obsession, and love."--People (Best New Books)

1975 is a time of change in America. The Vietnam War is ending. Muhammad Ali is fighting Joe Frazier. And in the smalltown of Monta Clare, Missouri, girls are disappearing.

When the daughter of a wealthy family is targeted, the most unlikely hero emerges--Patch, a local boy, who saves the girl, and, in doing so, leaves heartache in his wake.

Patch and those who love him soon discover that the line between triumph and tragedy has never been finer. And that their search for answers will lead them to truths that could mean losing one another.

A missing person mystery, a serial killer thriller, a love story, a unique twist on each, Chris Whitaker has written a novel about what lurks in the shadows of obsession and the blinding light of hope.

Very engaging from the beginning, but lagged somewhat in the middle. I had a heart for all characters involved and hurt for them as they hurt. Even though it’s a long book, it was a fast read with short chapters. I was always waiting to see what would happen next.

What I liked: An epic coming of age story including small town life, police thriller, prison drama, and road trip adventures. The author’s prior work “We Begin at the End” is one of my all time favorites, and this new book met all expectations. What I disliked: The author shoehorned so much into the plot. At over 600 pages, it could have been two or three books.

Twists and turns. Great characters, this would make a great Netflix series!

The best 592 pages of my life. Wow! I had to get the audio version to help me get through it, as the tears would flow or I tried to catch my breath while continuing to read. Not one moment could I say “Oh I saw that coming”. I was kept at the edge of my seat while reading. I felt like I was there, I knew and felt each character. Truly amazing and captivating. This book will forever stay with me. Thank you Chris Whitaker.
