Book Review: The White Door



Warning: this book will give you all of the feels. 

But if you've read the two books leading up to this one, you probably already figured that. 

I went through what might be called a book binge - I discovered the series a couple of weeks ago and read through all three books. It was wonderful!  But now I have to wait for the next book like everyone else. 

The White Door is the third book in a The Visitors series, a paranormal YA adventure. Those who don't believe in ghosts might change their minds after reading these. The whole, "edge of your seat" deal definitely applies here. 

Brylee has begun embracing her powers more, and is trying to help the dead in limbo move on to the light. But what about those that she isn't ready to let go of?  When I talk about all the feels, I mean it. I wasn't ready to get go of some characters either!  Will they find their way?

I just need to say that Brylee's parents tick me off. As a mom myself, I have a hard time imagining how distant her mother becomes. Then again, I'm a tad older than the targeted audience, and I'm sure that girls in their teens would covet a distracted mother-figure. 

Also, Ephraim is a total catch. Guys out there - this literary man is a good example of how to treat a girl. Read and take note. 

I hope that Christy is already writing the next book, because I can't wait!  I've already downloaded another of her books in a different series. She's a keeper!  

The official release date is tomorrow, but you can already download it on Amazon :)

Cover Reveal: The White Door by Christy Sloat




First off, how cute is this author banner?  I love it so much, I knew that I had to make sure to include it in my post.  Maybe I need one like this, only with blonde hair, and reading.  Oh, and the room would be covered in toys.

But aside from that, the main purpose of this post is to share with you the cover reveal for Christy's third book in the Visitor's Series, The White Door.  And here it is...


Absolutely stunning, if you ask me.  Doesn't the cover make you just want to pick it up and read it (in a fully lit house, of course) to find out what's behind that door?  So what is the book about?

Blurb:

The haunting third book in the Best Selling Visitors Series.
“When I first moved here I was still a girl who cherished the normality of teen life. Now, after being here a year I had come to love a boy who was both strong and courageous. I made real friendships that would last even after death. The selfish girl my grandmother warned me of becoming had vanished. A girl who stood tall, with the powers to see the dead and help those in need, appeared in her place.”
In Brylee’s world, nothing is normal. She sees and speaks with the dead and, at seventeen years old, she already has a full plate. She’s in her senior year of high school and college is just around the corner, but only if she learns to control her gifts and survive in the land of the living. She has succeeded in ridding her boyfriend, Ephraim, from the Brown family curse, but, in the end, her best friend loses her life. Now a whole slew of new problems present itself and, like always, Brylee is tempted to run for the hills. With Ephraim at her side, she must come to grips with the reality that she is not an average girl and she never will be. What will happen when the town turns on her? Or, better yet, when a body is unearthed in her backyard? The choices that Brylee must make will determine whether she has a future or nothing at all.



This series is next up on my to-read list.  In fact, the author has already kindly gifted me with the first two books, and I am going to dive in this weekend!  I am so excited to read these. Keep watching for my reviews!
