All the Quiet Places by Brian Thomas Isaac

adventurous dark reflective sad tense slow-paced

3.5

3.5!

Thank you Touchwood Editions for sending me an ARC in exchange for an honest review! 

Eddie Toma, our main character, is so likeable, which is what kept me reading. I love how his story was written, from a 4 year old boy to a late teen. The setting and the atmosphere in the book was written well, and I loved how the descriptions of each place was vivid and easy to picture. 

Although there is some confusion at times as to where we are (in terms of date), and some chapters were way too long/way too short, I do think this was a great debut book.

I feel like Brian Thomas Issac is the kind of author who you’d want to see live (or virtually), talking about this book, because I think it would bring a lot of clarity and meaning to the story.
