Why did it take Grant Dean Twenty-Seven minutes to help his sister?
Twenty-Seven minutes is a mystery/thriller with different POV's and timelines. Set on the small town of West Wilmer where residents cannot forget what happened that faithful night ten years ago and a recent tradegy that has people on edge.

I devoured this book in a day, the twist was pretty easy to see but the different POV's kept me intrigued to see how everything was going to unfold. A couple of the characters were so unlikable that it made it hard to feel bad or connect with them in any way. I do wish that the ending would've given a little more, I wanted to know how the characters dealt with the aftermath.

Overall I give this 4 out 5 because it really was a great book and I will definitely read more from this Author.

"Twenty-Seven Minutes" was a gripping page-turner! The author excelled at crafting a storyline filled with uncomfortable tension and suspense that will keep you guessing until the final page.

Tragedy struck the small town of West Wilmer a decade ago. Three teenagers were involved in a horrific accident and one lost her life. This book walks you through the events of that night. What really happened in the Twenty-Seven minutes it took our MMC Grant Dean to call for help? If only he could have reached the payphone more quickly, it could have potentially saved his sister's life.

Twenty-Seven Minutes by A. Tate, published by PPPress/ Sourcebooks, is a full-length, stand-alone, thriller/mystery. The storyline is set in a small town, thriving on gossip and centered around a 10 year old murdercase.
June, her brother Wyatt, Becca and Grant are the main characters. The story jumps between past and present, is intriguing, full of twists and turns.

Twenty seven minutes is a thriller/mystery, set in a small town that thrives on gossip. The rumor mill is swirling about how a young girl died 10 years before, after an elderly woman dies on the same bridge a decade later, causing old memories to resurface and the town to debate whether or not the bridge should be taken down. This book was interesting. I wanted to keep reading to see what happened. The beginning third of the book was a bit repetitive. I was sick of hearing about the bridge and Phoebe Dean. I saw the “twist” coming pretty early on, but I feel like the author did a good job of wrapping everything up nicely. I gave it 3.5 stars. It wasn’t my favorite, but I enjoyed it enough to want to read more by this author.

Thank you for the opportunity to read and review!

I was quite intrigued by the premise of Twenty-Seven Minutes, focusing on the death of a beloved high school girl, Phoebe. While I appreciated the characterization of the other characters within the novel, especially June, I felt I was never able to get to know Phoebe. However, I truly enjoyed this book and would gladly read more from the author.

I’m not quite sure how I feel about this one. I did enjoy this book, and I devoured it within 24 hours. Which is surprising solely because I detested every single character in it the story! I’ll definitely read more by Ashley Tate once I digest this one.

Mystery and intrigue…this talented author has written a cannot put down novel. The characters are realistic. The story moves quickly. Red herrings abound. This book was sent to me electronically by Netgalley for review.

3.5
The big twist was a shade too obvious too early, and the characters are all roundly unlikable, but that's not the problem. The problem is that every single narrator is unreliable and this definitely isn't magical realism so it's...it just reads loose, I guess.

Really thrilling book and the writing did it for me! Well done. Five stars! Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC.

I did like this book, but I thought the organization could have been a little better. The story was not hindered in any way, but I was a little turned around a couple of times.
