Under the Whispering Door got me so hooked that I did not want it to end! The message of love, connections, found family, redemption, and forgiveness - make this book an excellent read with thought-provoking life lessons when faced with urgency. It is geared to a higher reader audience but is current and relevant for the times.

I was so hooked with this book by the beginning, and I was so excited to see where it would lead, but ughhh, I struggled reading it. I felt it didn't need to be that long to get to the point. I still thought the book was very sweet, with great msg about love, family, friendship, and how ur mistakes and past do not define you, and it's never too late to learn, grow, and change.

okay I've always read this book cover as the whispering door under I don't know why but it just sounds way better than under the whispering door in my opinion probably is a terrible terrible opinion but that's how I feel so sorry anyway I just wanted to let you all know that these books are actually really trash no offense but like a good type of trash you know like the trash that helps people so I think you should probably maybe read this book so therefore this book is incredibly awfully amazin
