The Silent Sounds of Chaos was the perfect thriller to spend the weekend with. After a very busy Saturday, it decided to be cold and rainy on Sunday. I decided that a cup of coffee, a warm blanket, and a good thriller would be a perfect way to spend a rainy afternoon. I was right! The Silent Sounds of Chaos is the first book I’ve ready by Kristina Circelli and I’m so glad I discovered her as an author.

The Silent Sounds of Chaos
A silent call for help began the friendship between two children. A bond unlike any other kept them together. Finn was just a kid when he first heard Snow’s voice inside his head, two children in need of a friend and finding one in mysterious strangers. Never meeting in person, the pair grows up as opposites – Finn the boy who loves to get in trouble and works for the toughest drug lord in town, Snow the good, sheltered girl who wants to be a doctor.
The bond built upon a strange ability to hear each other’s thoughts is threatened when Snow is abducted, her screams for help consuming Finn’s mind until they disappear completely, submerging him in a terrifying silence he’s never known before. Now it’s up to Finn to save her, led only by Snow’s sporadic thoughts as she floats in and out of consciousness.
But the search for Snow leads him to a truth he isn’t prepared to face, a truth that has the power to unravel his entire world. The people he thought he knew, the life he thought he’d made, the best friend he thought he could protect – all point toward a brutal reality should he fail. And as Finn struggles to find Snow before she slips away, he must fight to keep that reality out, lest he let the chaos in.
When I first started The Silent Sounds of Chaos I wasn’t sure I could read it. Child abuse is a big trigger for me and I almost put the book down because it hurt so much to read about the life that Finn led. I was really intrigued by the bond that he shared with Snow so I decided to continue reading and I am SO glad I did. I had an ending in my mind that I wanted to happen, and I kept hoping that things would turn out the way I planned. I was totally blown away when I actually read the ending of this book. It was nothing like what I had hoped but WOW. It really brought a whole new level to the story I read.
If you enjoy suspense stories or thrillers, I definitely recommend that you read through The Silent Sounds of Chaos. There are some heartaches in the beginning, but the ending is so worth the read.
