Nine by Rachelle Dekker {Book Review}

Thank you to Revell for sending me a finished copy for free to review on my blog! Even though I received a free copy this by no means effects my thoughts, opinions and experience of reading this book.

Title
: Nine
Author: Rachelle Dekker
Age: Adult
Genres: Christian Suspense
Publication Date: September 1, 2020
Publisher: Revell
Source: Paperback
Purchase: Paperback | Kindle | Audible | HardcoverChristian Book
Synopsis:
Zoe Johnson spent most of her life living in the shadows, never drawing attention to herself, never investing in people or places. But when a wide-eyed, bedraggled teenager with no memory walks into the diner where Zoe works, everything changes. Now, against her better judgment, Zoe, who has been trying to outrun her own painful memories of the past, finds herself attempting to help a girl who doesn't seem to have any past at all. The girl knows only one thing: she must reach a woman in Corpus Christi, Texas, hundreds of miles away, before the government agents who are searching for her catch up to them. 
Award-winning author Rachelle Dekker throws you into the middle of the action and keeps the pressure on in this page-turning story that, asks Are we who the world says we are--or can we change our story and be something more?
My Rating:
This is a solid 4.5 star read for me. I truly enjoyed this story and all the suspense that it gave. This is such a perfect fall read!! The atmosphere of the book feels dark enough to give off those "spooky" suspense vibes without the demonic, supernatural elements. The characters were all so interesting and well written. I liked them all for different reasons. I absolutely love the "minor" connection of this book with The Girl Behind the Red Rope, that book got a 5 star rating from me. 

Rachelle's writing style is so easy to get into. She leaves enough space for you to guess, but also does such a fantastic job at foreshadowing. It's such a compelling read that really pulled on my emotions at times. The pacing of the story was perfect, it's action packed and many of the plot twists kept me going.

If you are not big on violence in your Christian fiction novels, this might not be for you. This does have violence and it also talks about a cult. Violence doesn't bother me, so I didn't find it troublesome to read.

Overall, I enjoyed it and was excited with each turn of the page. I can't wait to read more from Rachelle Dekker in the future. Her writing is simply impeccable for me. I will be doing a second re-read of this so that I can thoroughly annotate this book!!

Blessings,
