This was a Goodreads YA recommendation, but I don’t read horror genre. But thought I would try it in order to get ready for a Jane Austen meeting on gothic Northanger Abbey. I liked the development of the characters, the town’s history, and early on it felt like a mystery, but got queezy when all of the sorcerer killings started happening. ( ) Oh my Goddess. Really. As I knew would happen, once I picked up this book I couldn't put it down until I finished it. It is nothing short of brilliant. And that ending! "When is the next one coming?" I asked. How will I endure until then? The story doesn't falter once. There is love and hate, viciousness and kindness, fear and beautiful moments. One minute I was laughing and the next I was gritting my teeth. At the end I burst into tears. I really can't wait to read more of this story. And as a side note - a YA novel not in first-person-present-tense! On all fronts, way to go, Sarah. no reviews | add a review

"Kami Glass is in love with someone she's never met--a boy she's talked to in her head since she was born. This has made her an outsider in the sleepy English town of Sorry-in-the-Vale, but she has learned ways to turn that to her advantage. Her life seems to be in order, until disturbing events begin to occur. There has been screaming in the woods and the manor overlooking the town has lit up for the first time in 10 years. The Lynburn family, who ruled the town a generation ago and who all left without warning, have returned. Now Kami can see that the town she has known and loved all her life is hiding a multitude of secrets--and a murderer. The key to it all just might be the boy in her head. The boy she thought was imaginary is real, and definitely and deliciously dangerous"-- No library descriptions found. |
