For as long
as she can remember, 17-year-old Alexis Forbes can hear the thoughts of others.
Most recently, she is disturbed by the dark, unfamiliar voice of a frightening
killer: callous, cunning, charismatic…and dead.
She hears his every sinister thought. But she can’t tell anyone. No one would believe her. Alexis is suddenly being haunted by a terrifying past she doesn’t remember, and a ghost with a serious score to settle. Even Chance, the gorgeous new guy she’s falling for, has his own ghostly secret. He’s definitely not like any guy she’s ever met. Alexis soon discovers she has a connection to the dead and it runs much deeper than she could ever imagine. And if the sociopathic entity has his way, she’ll finally be sentenced to the fate she escaped thirteen years ago.

He removed his hand from mine, pushed my hair behind my ear, and leaned in to kiss my forehead.. “I’d do anything for you.”
Whispering
Hills by Taryn Browning had me on such a roller coaster, every time I thought I
knew what was going to happen next, Taryn would completely surprise me and
throw in an amazingly awesome twist to the story! This story had me on the edge
of my seat from the very first page, till the very last and then left me dying
to know what will happen next in book two.
Now there
were multiple things I loved about Whispering Hills, but first I must start
with what really made me love this story, that was the suspense of this novel,
and the fact that it kept me guessing and on the edge of my seat throughout the
whole book. I will be the first to admit there is a large number of YA novels
that are predictable, normally right from the beginning you can tell where the
story is going to go. This doesn’t make the story bad by any means, but when I
find a book the does the complete opposite…I know I have found a winning book.
When I
started Whispering Hills I made some mental guesses about where the story was
going to go, and this is one of the few times I was completely wrong almost
every time. This novel is suspense at its best, Taryn is an amazing writer for
being able to make ever surprise…a serious surprise! Each time I would find a
new piece to the puzzle of what was going on, I was shocked about the new
information and dying to know where it was going to lead the characters.
There were
two other things I loved a lot about Whispering Hills, one being how this
paranormal was so different, and two being the characters. The paranormal that
Whispering Hills revolves around is ghosts, but this ghost novel was nothing
like the other ones I have read, it had a whole new twist that involves what
happens when you change fate, I don’t want to give too much away, so let’s just
say it is intense!
Then the
characters, I loved them all! Chance was so caring, Gabriel was terrifying, but
I still kinda liked him for some weird reason. Alexis our main girl was
awesome, she was so caring of her friends and family and even though a lot of
times she was scared she would still suck it up for the ones she would love. My
favorite character though was Summer hands down! She was so different compared
to most characters, she was so edgy yet still deep down you knew she was
actually a really caring person! The characters were all so refreshing!
Over all
Whispering Hills was my first Taryn Brown novel and it did not disappoint! If you’re looking for a YA novel that is non-predictable,
has an awesome paranormal romance, and
keeps you on the edge of your seat then Whispering Hills is a must read for
you! It leaves you with a chilling ending that will have you dying for book
two!
