The Butterfly Sister, by Amy Gail Hansen narrated by Amy
Rubinate
This was a different story than I expected, it turned out to
be a darn good thriller and Amy Rubinate's narration just made it all the
better!
Ruby is a much damaged woman after a bad affair she drops
out of college and moves home when one day a delivery is made to her house of a
suitcase belonging to her former roommate Beth but when Ruby sets out to find
Beth she instead finds out that she is missing. This mystery takes her back to
the scene of her heartbreak, Tarble College, where she finds an even bigger
mystery that also seems to revolve around her own heartbreak.
As I said I wasn’t expecting this book to be a thriller I
was expecting a sister story, (the title is explained towards the end of the
book.) But I did really enjoy this one once I got over the fact that I hadn’t
read the description very well. I enjoyed the use of authors Woolf, Plath &
Perkins as plot devices to tell you how some of these women felt. The mystery of it all kept me guessing as to
the cause of the disappearance and other things happening on campus and the
reveal completely threw me, which is a great thing! Every time I thought I had
it figured out things would swing in a different direction, which I enjoyed.
Amy Rubinate’s narration was as always impeccable her soft
southern accent was perfect with just the right amount of accent as to not
become overdone. All of her characters and voices were well done and I feel her
narration made this book even better. If you haven’t listened to Rubinate’s
narrations I highly recommend anything narrated by her.
I would recommend this thriller to anyone who likes a book
that will keep you guessing.
