Book Review: Between the Sound and Sea by Amanda Cox

 I love a book that fits multiple genres and this one certainly does. This book is a mystery, historical fiction, and romance all in one. The romance is the kind that where you long for the characters to find each other. The historical elements will make you want to research. I pride myself on being able to guess all the twists, but this book kept me guessing. I was even wrong about a couple things.

The main character, Joey, is pretty relatable. From the very beginning of this book Joey faces the unknown. I think we can all relate to seasons of uncertainty. I like that this Joey chooses adventure and shows us that uncertainty isn't always a bad thing. Not knowing could be the start of something great. 

The author, Amanda Cox, does a fantastic job in setting the scene. You can really imagine yourself at the lighthouse or among the crashing waves. The emotional state is also very well written, making it easy to feel along with the characters. 

This book has just the right amount of twist and thrills without being scary. It easily checks boxes for multiple different types of readers. Whether you're looking for a good thrill, a realistic romance, or book that tackles real life struggles, this book has something in it for you. I highly suggest giving it a read.
