Extra Book - In An Instant

Book: In An Instant
Author: Suzanne Redfearn
Pages: 326


This was my 18th read for the year

I got this one as part of the monthly First Reads for Kindle through Prime.  I try to get those books once a month, but I haven't read many because I have been working hard on this Read The World Challenge.

This is the story of Finn Miller and her family.  They were going on a camping trip for the weekend when an unspeakable tragedy happens.  Finn is killed in the accident but is trapped between this world in the next as she witnesses her family and friends fight to survive.  The months that follow the tragedy are hard on Finn's family and friends and she bounces between them as they come to terms with the aftermath of the tragedy.  The survivors start to piece together what happened immediately after the accident and the truth comes to light.

This was a fair book.  I know this type of story has been done many times, but I was still drawn to it.  It is a very easy read and I got through it in two evenings.  I didn't want to quit until I saw where it was leading and how everything was going to turn out for this family.   It is pretty well written, and the characters were well developed.  Some of the plot was....eh.  But overall - it was a good read.  It brings to mind what we would do ourselves in the face of a similar tragedy. 

I always read the Author's note in each book, and I encourage you to read this one when you finish the book.
