When She Was Me     
                     By Marlee Bush.    3.75
     I found this novel to be at a very slow burn pace. For a thriller I prefer a faster pace. One that keeps me more engaged with the suspense early on. With that said. The slow burn is this authors style. She gave you a duo point of views, and a back and forth timeline. From there youth to present. As she weaves, their  story throughout the timelines. You learned of the struggles that Casey and Lonera grew up with bringing them to this little cabin in the woods. Looking for peace and isolation off the beaten path. With a  mysterious past they can’t out run. The close twin bond the girls share. Cassie. Being born the stronger personality. Always protecting  Lenora with the weaker, more fragile personality. Never quite  knowing what to expect. Willing to do anything to keep her safe. Finds themselves. Right in the middle of a missing teenager situation. As the tension builds, the plot thickens and the pace picks up . The setting in the woods just adds a mystic, spooky feeling. With Cassie and her true crime passion. And Lenora trying to hold on to reality. They begins to unravel the mysteries of there past and the predicament they now find themselves in. 
   The author did a great job. Bringing all the stories lines together. Leaving us with a twist. I never saw coming!
