I received a free copy of this book, Signs in the Dark by Susan Miura, from Dawn Carrington from Vinspire Publishing in exchange for an honest review. This review may contain spoilers so please read at your own risk.
Signs in the Dark is a cute and haunting story of a deaf girl named Haylie who gets abducted after receiving a text from Nathan to meet in the alley in 10. The story is told from the perspective of Haylie and Nathan.
I loved this book and could have finished it in one day except life kind of got in the way. This is a definite mom approved book and kind of reminded me of Angel Eyes by Shannon Dittemore by the faith these characters had in God and dealing with a similar theme (which is also why I mention mom approved because my mom bought me Angel Eyes because she thought I was not reading enough Christian novels).
I fell in love with the characters from the first page and never stopped loving them.
Nathan, oh Nathan, he tried so hard to find clues on where Haylie was being held except everything he did made him look like more of a suspect to Haylie's abduction. You just want to hug both of them because they are so sweet and wholesome.
The writing is an easy pace and flows nicely. My only critique is that I wish the title played more in the book like if there were actual signs in the dark. Unless we want to count that it all happened mostly at night?
The book comes out October 15, 2020 so mark your calendar because this is one book you will not want to miss. It has enough of a Christian aspect to it that moms everywhere will approve, but is not so preachy that anyone can read it even if it is not your faith. This is my kind of book and I love how the author created a diverse cast of characters while getting input from people who actually are Peruvian or in the Deaf Community.
I cannot sing its praises enough and I cannot thank Susan and Dawn enough for allowing me this opportunity to read such a remarkable book.
500 out of 5 stars.
