I’m always a fan of mysteries and so I was really intrigued with The Butterfly Clues especially when I found out that the main character Lo, has OCD and well my favourite television programme just so happens to be about a detective with OCD. However, they’re not the same but I still really enjoyed The Butterfly Clues. Not to mention that I love the cover, it’s absolutely gorgeous. I sat down and started reading The Butterfly Clues and I got swept up in all the mystery. Lo becomes obsessed with a girl who got murdered and she feels that if she can solve this mystery it might give her some closure about her brother’s death. Not only do you not know who killed Sapphire and why but you also don’t know what happened to Lo’s brother Oren for a really long time. While I have to say that I absolutely loved the mystery surrounding these two events I found that towards the end I was getting swept up in all of the emotions too. It was so well done and I just couldn’t help myself but feel Lo’s pain with her. One thing I really loved was that there’s things that are hinted at throughout the whole novel and so you get this vague idea of what’s going on in Lo’s life and in the whole murder and everything and then you get to see the whole picture and it is just so emotionally wrenching that I couldn’t help but tear up. I had guessed the whole whodunit part of the story but that wasn’t really the main part of the story. The main part was Lo and how she was so emotionally broken after her brother’s death, how her whole family is broken after Oren’s death. There were so many scenes that I felt were quite heart-wrenching to be honest. Overall, I absolutely adored The Butterfly Clues, I thought it was really touching and so emotional, not to mention a great mystery. I don’t really know what else to say about it other than it’s a truly amazing book and I look forward to reading more by Kate Ellison.
