Gilt Hollow By Lorie Langdon - Starting April 19th 2016

[Abi]

Willow Lamott’s best friend is a murderer, and no one in the small town of Gilt Hollow will let her forget it. For four long years, she’s tried to fade into the background—but none of that matters when Ashton Keller comes striding into school, fresh out of juvie and fueled by revenge. The moment their eyes meet, Willow no longer feels invisible. Drawn to the vulnerability behind Ashton’s mask of rage, she sinks deeper into his sinister world and begins to question whether he’s a villain, a savior, or both.
Ashton thought he wanted vengeance, until Willow reminded him what he’d been missing. Now he longs to clear his name and become the person she sees in him. But the closer they get to uncovering the truth, the darker the secrets become, and Ashton fears his return to Gilt Hollow will destroy everyone he loves, especially the girl he left behind.

3% (view spoiler)[ pretty bad that his mother didn't visit him! Where is he going to live now? Will his parents let him back in? I'm guessing not. (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[ Yep. I doubt it. (hide spoiler)]

[Abi]

I'm quite bored of this at the moment.

[Sarah Elizabeth]

24% (view spoiler)[ I actually feel sorry for Ashton, but why did he get people to say he did it if he didn't? and how does he think he's going to find the real killer? and who will believe him if he does? (hide spoiler)]

I've not gotten that far because I've had it on text-to-speech. It seems quite slow though.

It's the slow pace that's doing it for me, it's making it feel like it'll never end.

[Sarah Elizabeth]

It is dragging. It just seems like nothing much is happening, I'm a third of the way into the book and he's made no steps to find out the real killer at all.

60% - (view spoiler)[It's quite bad that her mum didn't send the letters, it should have been her choice if she wanted to write to him. (hide spoiler)]

I thought that was quite bad too.

[Melanie]

I have this book to read from NetGalley, so I'll be joining this buddy read hopefully in the next two weeks. :) Sorry to hear it's a boring/slow read...makes me a little nervous to read it as I'm already in a reading slump. :/

[Sarah Elizabeth]

It might not be the best book for a reading slump because the pace is pretty slow.

[Melanie]

That's what I'm afraid of...Thanks, Sarah, I think I'll put off this book until my slump is over. :)

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Hope it ends soon!

[Melanie]

I think I'm finally ready to read this. Will be starting within the next couple days. :)

[Melanie]

Actually, I started it and it just doesn't interest me right now. :( Going to put it aside again....
