Flicker by Melanie Hooyenga
3.0
I VOLUNTARILY REVIEWED A COPY FROM THE "RACHEL E. CARTER YA BOOK CLUB ON GOODREADS.
When I read the blurb for this book, I was immediately intrigued. Biz, a seemingly ordinary teenage girl, has a strange ability. When she is exposed to flickering light and shadows she goes back in time. Sometimes this happens whether she likes it or not.
Biz's best friend Cameron's little sister was snatched 4 years earlier, and a recent spate of young girls disappearing brings the case back up. Can Biz's ability help stop these girls from disappearing, and maybe even help find Cameron's missing sister?
This story captivated me from the start. Its not like anything I have read before, which is a huge bonus in my eyes.
I admit I did find Biz a bit annoying at times. She seemed quite self absorbed for most of the book (but then, I guess most people are!)
I loved her relationship with Cam - lots of chemistry, and very sweetly done - though it did seem a little rushed. One minute he is in the friend zone, the next she is noticing his muscles and (internally) swooning.
Despite the few flaws, this was a great read!
