It all started when a mysterious, but seemingly innocent postcard arrived in the house of Griffin Moss, a quiet, solitary artist living in London. His logical, methodical world was suddenly turned upside by a strangely exotic woman living on a tropical island thousands of miles away. Who is Sabine, and how can she “see” what Griffin is painting when they have never met? Is she a long lost twin? A clairvoyant? Is Griffin just going completely bonkers?
This stunning visual novel comprises of interactive postcards and letters that have been drawn to perfection. Griffin & Sabine is definitely one of the best books I’ve ever read. It is the first book in the Griffin & Sabine trilogy. If I could rate this book out of 10, I’d give it a 20! There is absolutely nothing wrong with it. I couldn’t put it down, literally! I almost cried when I had to go to bed! The book is actually written for adults, but if you’re mature enough to handle some bad language and you like a good read than this is for you!
