One Moment

Author: Kristina McBride
Goodreads Rating: 4.00
My Rating: 3.75
Pages: 272

Releases: June 26, 2012


I got this book from Netgalley because the premise seemed interesting. I don't know what I would do or how I would even cope with losing my boyfriend, let alone not knowing what happened when you were right there. This book also drove home the idea that all it takes is one moment for everything to change and that sometimes there is nothing that you can do to change it. I also loved the cover, it seems so idyllic which is different from the chaos in the pages.


Goodreads Synopses:


This was supposed to be the best summer of Maggie’s life. Now it’s the one she’d do anything to forget.

Maggie Reynolds remembers hanging out at the gorge with her closest friends after a blowout party the night before. She remembers climbing the trail hand in hand with her perfect boyfriend, Joey. She remembers that last kiss, soft, lingering, and meant to reassure her. So why can’t she remember what happened in the moment before they were supposed to dive? Why was she left cowering at the top of the cliff, while Joey floated in the water below—dead?

As Maggie’s memories return in snatches, nothing seems to make sense. Why was Joey acting so strangely at the party? Where did he go after taking her home? And if Joey was keeping these secrets, what else was he hiding?

The latest novel from the author of The Tension of Opposites, One Moment is a mysterious, searing look at how an instant can change everything you believe about the world around you.



My review after the jump.
