LOVED THIS BOOK! I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. I loved the POV chnage chapter by chapter and the parallelism. Ending was a little predictable BUT there were a few surprised throughout and a few holes in the story, but absolutely loved it. Read it in two days.
Following a young woman who travels to Fell, New York in pursuit of the truth about her aunt's mysterious disappearance in the same town, The Sun Down Motel will entrance with a rich sense of place, 80's nostalgia, and an utterly gripping - and genuinely creepy - mystery.
I love a good scary mystery, and The Sun Down Motel had all the elements to make it perfect. I loved the Gothic atmosphere, the theme of women coming together to get justice for other women, and the excellent momentum of the pacing.
It was great, mysterious, and also scary. I like the writing of the book and also the cover:)

Starts off slow but has a many plot twists!! 2 different story lines end up parallel to each other. Heavily women led and we loved!
