Review of The June Boys
Review (4.5 Stars): The June Boys was a creepy mystery that literally will have readers reading with the lights on. Thea’s hometown has been haunted by The Gemini Thief, who takes three boys every June only to return them a year later. The only thing is that this year, The Gemini Thief has progressed to murdering their victims and Thea’s cousin is one of the missing. As the clues start adding up, Thea has to take a close look at home because she is afraid that her own father may be The Gemini Thief.
I’m a huge fan of mysteries and I couldn’t believe how fast this story will suck you in. Thea was an interesting character that was torn between helping to finding her cousin and being afraid that her father was really The Gemini Thief. This book had me at the edge of my seat and you will be too because it was hard to put this book down until you reached its conclusion.
