I recently re-read the Mara Dyer books because The Becoming of Noah Shaw came out. I didn’t really remember a lot of what happened in Mara Dyer and I had also forgotten a lot of the characters. But, re-reading Mara Dyer was so much fun. I missed these books and for good reason. They’re SO GOOD!
If you’re unfamiliar with them, there are three books. The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer, The Evolution of Mara Dyer and The Retribution of Mara Dyer.
The first one starts off with a game of Ouiji. Mara is playing with her two friends and one of them asks how they’re going to die. The game board spells out Mara’s name and within six months the two friends, along with Mara’s boyfriend at the time are dead. Mara’s family ends up moving to Florida to help Mara heal from this tragic situation. But, it doesn’t help because Mara starts seeing her boyfriend. She can’t be seeing him though, because he’s dead….right?
I absolutely devoured these books. The best part of this series. The author has mentioned that they are inspired on a true events (crazy, right?). Which made me even more obsessed with these books. They are so well written and the cliffhangers at the end of the chapters made me want to stay up reading no matter how tired I was. Even the second time around, knowing I knew what happened, I still was caught up in the story. I highly, highly, HIGHLY recommend these books!
The Becoming of Noah Shaw is part of the Mara Dyer series but they’re separate from Mara’s story. I have yet to even start reading it, but what I’ve read from the synopsis it starts a few months AFTER The Retribution of Mara Dyer ends.
I hope you all will read Mara Dyer and let me know what you think of them! I can’t wait to hear your opinions!
