Blurb:
Leave now or you will die like your father.
Ten years after her father’s death in a horrific car accident, Ryan returns to East Texas to mend her relationship with her mother, only to be blindsided by her callous indifference.
Ignoring the pain of rejection, Ryan navigates her new life in college, her new roommates, and her new therapist. Her nightmares and anxiety attacks are more prevalent than ever and now her therapist insists on more aggressive treatments to combat the debilitating symptoms caused by her repressed memories.
A run on the campus trails turns catastrophic and her worst nightmares become reality. Threatening letters start to flow in. Someone wants her to leave. With an unknown force stalking her every move and her mental illness at its worst, Ryan can’t trust anyone, least of all herself. The attacks are escalating and the only one who has the answers that Ryan needs is nowhere to be found.
On a journey to know who she is, she discovers that everything she thinks she knows, is a lie.
My Thoughts and Review:
Hollow Ground is author Annah Rae Covert's debut novel. It is book one of the Grounded Trilogy. With that being said, this book resolved one of what appear to be many mysteries. It left me with unanswered question, feeling like there is more to be unraveled, and wanting more.
I loved the characters. I enjoyed the fact that this book had a main character suffering from depression/anxiety, who was going to therapy and group sessions for it. I often feel that this is a huge part of mental illness that is missed in many novels.
I can't wait to see what Dr. Thatcher uncovers in Ryan's repressed memories. I hope to find out more about the estranged relationship Ryan shares with her mother, Angie. I am excitedly looking forward to joining Ryan and her friends in the rest of this trilogy.
Hollow Ground is currently available for preorder on Amazon, and releases on November 17, 2018. Be sure to check it out.
