When the Hill Came Down

When the Hill Came Down

Keefe Williams lives a childhood of neglect and disconnect, feeling completely invisible. Known only for the story of the night his parents died and the freak event that killed them, he suffers silently holding on to the one thing in his life that sets him apart. When Keefe is a teenager Summer Barkley moves to the community. She is oblivious to the entrenched story of Keefe Williams's life, giving him an opportunity to finally be someone separate from his tragic past. As their relationship develops, Keefe can claim his true identity. Through Keefe's art and Summer's writing the need to truly explore and understand the past becomes something from which they cannot run. When the Hill Came Down explores greed, jealousy, love, loyalty and the very fabric of a community full of stories whose threads intertwine. The colour, texture and multi-faceted of any story in any community, bear scrutiny. Nothing is ever exactly the way it seems.

📖 Critique de livre 📖
« When The Hill Came Down » de @susanwhite et publié par @acornpress a été une lecture formidable mais un peu triste que j'ai vraiment apprécié !

Ce livre a été magnifiquement écrit et j'ai vraiment adoré les sujets de l'amour et des maladies mentales. Les détails et les images m'ont donné l'impression d'être dans l'histoire et c'était cool de lire sur un endroit où je suis déjà allé.

Ce livre m'a vraiment fait penser à ne jamais juger les gens par leur couverture et même si l'histoire était parfois assez tragique, il y avait une fin heureuse avec tout bien lié.

Dans l'ensemble, ce fut une excellente lecture et un autre livre fantastique écrit par Susan White ! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5/⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I recommend this book.

Mid-Read Review

So far I'm really liking the emotion portrayed throughout the first part, it's very raw and gets you to feel what the characters are feeling. One critique that I have is that so far it seems a bit rushed, it doesn't spend too much time on any particular moment, and I feel like it would be easier to relate to the characters and their relationship if it spent more time exploring the little moments.

Despite that, I'm very excited to continue reading this book and see where the storyline goes!

I recommend this book.
