Book Review of The Roanoke Girls

The Roanoke Girls
njmom3 avatar reviewed on + 1370 more book reviews


The book starts with the premise of many a great family stories. An adult returns to a childhood home and comes face to face with the secrets of the past. A disturbing topic, an early reveal of the big secret of the book, a predictable conclusion, and a distanced narrator all make The Roanoke Girls by Amy Engel a difficult book to engage with.
