I give the book a 5 star review because the author was really good at making the characters sound real. Also, the book was very suspenseful so it made me want to keep on reading it. This is a great book and I would gladly read it again.

I expected this book to be a light beach read but it was actually more complex. I enjoyed the writing and how each chapter was from a different characters point of view. I also liked the way the timeline was organized and how it all came together in the end.

The first of the series about a small town which rallies around its hockey club. The hockey is filled with life-lessons and philosophy until a life-altering incident occurs which caused a rift in the community as folks pick sides. Ultimately the incident tears the community apart as well as its hockey team while at the same time destroying the innocence of the teenagers at the heart of it.

I usually love a good historical fiction read, but this one never caught my attention like others I have read. Took a while to get into this book. It was hard to follow for me. I liked that the theme was very relevant to the times we are living in.

Amazing book, parts are a little hard to understand when they are not given a backstory such as kanji, ochimusha, and moonfolk.

The 7th and last book of the Rock Harbor Series. I am sad that I got to the end of the series. But loved reading about Rock Harbor and watching them learn and grow as people (characters). Dana, friend to Bree, is returning to Rock Harbor after her relationship hit the rocks. The past and the present come together. Love the Rock Harbor series and will try another series by this author.
