In an Instant follows the story of a sixteen-year-old girl named Fin Miller, who dies when her RV goes over a mountain. She becomes a ghost and watches her family and friends' grief over the life altering crash. They all experience extreme loss and injuries that will forever be a reminder of the day they were on a snowy road, just about to grab food. No one really knows how one would react in a life or death situation. But what if some people's actions disappoint and maybe put everyone else in danger? Written in a third person point of view told by the sixteen-year-old ghost, this book shares a unique perspective to an extreme situation.
This book was a quick read that I think can get anyone out of a reading slump. I think that this is such a unique book that if one is sick of reading the same type of mystery or romance they should definitely give this book a try. This book has an overall sad tone due to the sorrow that gets shared between characters and Fin herself. Even so, there is still so much entertainment that comes along with it. I read this book during winter which was very fitting, and I was able to be completely enthralled in the story. If you want to read a book that pulls at every emotion, this is definitely the book for you.
