I’m not very familiar with stories like these, ones that come out four chapters at a time every three weeks and categorize themselves as episodes and seasons like a tv show, but now that I know about it, I’m honestly kind of into it. Something strange is going on in Silverwood.
Not a lot happens in this book, which is why normally I wouldn’t enjoy it. We’re introduced to each of the four main characters, in the third person viewpoint, a chapter at a time. If we’re classifying it as a novella, I would say I didn’t like it. But because it’s episodes, I think we got to know a lot for a first to fourth episode. And I’m intrigued, I can’t wait to get my hands on the next set.
Four different authors crafted this, but you can’t really tell between their writing styles. It all fits together really well. Someone new is moving into the mansions in her town, and Avery isn’t happy about it. That being said, she doesn’t really want to like her new neighbour, but is very interested in him. Marshall sometimes feels like there’s someone else in his dreams with him. He feels lack luster in his life beside his interesting friends. Hailey is an intimidating soccer player with a drunk mom. And finally, Israel, an abused boy with extra thick blood who moves around a lot.
This book was over long before I wanted it to be, and I devoured it in about half an hour. I can’t wait to check out more, and I think that people who like books about teens with strange powers would really enjoy reading this book too.
