This story had me hooked very early on. I was intrigued by the characters and loved the supernatural elements of the story. I enjoyed following the main character's journey as she began to question what she believed and navigate the consequences of those questions.

The authors have a message to deliver through the story about living in the Light (i.e truth and love) versus living in fear. At times this message is subtle and other times I found the metaphors and double meaning to be loud and distracting. Perhaps I have a tendency to overthink things but I felt forced to pause and reflect on my own beliefs rather than just enjoy the story. I suspect this was the authors' intention all along, to encourage the reader reflect on their own ideology, not just tell an interesting story.

This book was a captivating and quick read that I finished in just a couple of days. I typically read fiction to escape to far away places rather than think about and question myself and the world around me. However this book contained both elements and I really enjoyed it. The Girl Behind the Red Rope is a spellbinding story with a powerful message.
