What Lies Inside by J.L. MyersMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
When I think about this story more in depth, I liked the story-telling which was well-developed and complex. Characters were realistic and amazingly descriptive. Plot development was beautiful and deep at the same time much like the Bella love triangle from Twilight.
However, Amelia's interactions with the other characters especially Kendrick left me in want of more. I felt that these relationships weren't fully explored or that they were there for the reader to be prepared for the second book. Either way, it just didn't sit so well with me.
While the author may have wanted to think that this creates suspense or a desire to read the next book, it became major "fill-in-the-blank" sections for me. Where Amelia is concerned, Myers had me at the edge of my seat.
Amelia's role in the story or rather the story that we come to know as Amelia's discovery of herself is emotional as it is dramatic. Her emotions and thoughts are the infrastructure to the story. Once love sets in, you'll have problems putting this book down.
