- Where should I start?
- Start with The Things We Cannot Say — it's the Kelly Rimmer book we've reviewed, and it's also their most notable work. Book bloggers found both of its timelines compelling and moving, and it holds a reader rating of 4.7/5 from 66,344 Amazon ratings. If you enjoy historical fiction with an emotional, family-centered core, it's a natural entry point.
- What's their writing style?
- Judging by The Things We Cannot Say, Rimmer favors dual-timeline storytelling — weaving a historical narrative together with a contemporary one so each illuminates the other. Their approach blends research with imagination, which fits their own description of historical fiction requiring both research and daydreaming. Reviewers found the result moving across both timelines, though one blogger pushed back on the intensity of the wartime love story.
