Heather Davis' second novel, The Clearing, was even better than her first and that is saying something because I greatly enjoyed Never Cry Werewolf. The Clearing was such a unique love story and one that I know I will re-read many times in the future.Amy was a beautiful character. Unlike some characters, she was real. She had many issues that real teens face and I found her very easy to relate to. Sometimes she got on my nerves but she was still a great character. As was Henry. He was so sweet and charming. He cared so much for his family and he was super kind to Amy. There wasn't a single thing about him that I disliked. He was the perfect gentleman.I think the love story in The Clearing may be one of the best I have ever read. Henry and Amy were exactly what each other needed. They didn't care that one of them lived in 1944 and the other in 2010. All they cared about was each other. It was beautiful and heartbreaking at the same time. Overall, The Clearing is an amazing story. I know many people were disappointed with Heather Davis' debut novel, Never Cry Werewolf, but don't let that stop you from giving this one a chance. That are nothing at all alike!
