Review: Sticks and Stone

Sticks and Stone by David James Warren
My rating: 💛💛💛💛💛

This is a lifetime I haven't lived, and although the pieces are starting to form, I'm going to need a lot more coffee.

Just when I think the authors can’t turn Rembrandt’s life more upside down, they throw in a major TWIST!

I loved this. It was thrilling, suspenseful and I gave up sleep to finish it. At when I closed the last pages I wanted to cry, because the teaser for book 4 is just mean and now I have to wait!

Really, it's not that hard to change history when you know the time and place history is going to happen.

I love the inner battle in Rembrandt to not change the past but also not accept things as is. He is a hero at heart and it is so difficult for him to stand back and let events play out. I love Eve. She is just the perfect partner for Rem and she had me holding my breath a few times. I wish I could see more of John Booker and the role he played in Rem’s life.

I'm not trying to be a hero. I just wanted to be a good guy for a change.

I’m loving this series and if you like thrilling suspense, go read this series. You need to read it in order though.

Maybe the only way I don't completely screw anything up in the future is to...well, listen to my regrets today.

Looking forward to the next book, but also scared for what else poor Rem will have to endure. Come on August 1st!
