Buried in My Past: Review

From Goodreads:
She's desperate to stop the panic attacks. But the truth won't set her free...

Jamie Kendal sees life through the bottom of a bottle. After surviving assault and betrayal, she is forced back to her hometown to care for her mother. Not long after her return, she's plagued by terrifying slivers of memories from the night her twin brother disappeared forever...

Unearthing new evidence, she's shocked to learn she'd been found wandering in the woods that same night-- covered in blood. More than one person from her past hid a haunting truth that's bubbling to the surface. The deeper she digs into the horrors from her past, the more she fears anyone could be a killer, including Jamie herself.

Can Jamie expose what happened that night, or will she join her missing brother?

My Review:
This was a really fantastic book! I loved the mystery, and Jamie and watching her go on this journey, investigating what happened that night, inter-spaced with some different POV's, and scenes from that night, yeah, it was so great to read!

Jamie is a complicated character. She's had trauma that she's really only really starting to realize the full extent of it right now, with her memories partially coming back and all. Given that her brother hasn't been seen since that night, well, it's an pretty important mystery in her life-and in her mother's.

There was a lot going on, as well. It's a mystery, there's so many threads, and some of them were unexpectedly connected. Every detail, even throwaway ones, could be important-or they could be red herrings. Oh, what I love about mystery books!

The ending was pretty intense and satisfying! There were answers, and it all worked out for the good guys. And gave them all a chance to heal all the hurts that came about on this whole journey, and that was just so great to read!

I enjoyed this book so much, it was a fantastic read!
