Stand alone novel
Review from my Goodreads account:
Actual Rating: 3.5 stars. I REALLY WISH GOODREADS OFFERED HALF STARS. Heartbreaking. What you have here is a creepy, enchanting, and interesting novel. In the town of Gentry, children go missing and are replaced with something that looks like them, but isn't. These children are taken for the good of the town, but what if one of "them" has a different idea about what's good for Gentry? My summary is very vague, because a lot of things in this book where vague. Things I personally want to highlight: 1. Mackie is one of my favorite narrators. I really connected well with him. 2. I hatehatehatehate Tate. HATE HER. *shoots lasers from eye sockets* 3. The Morrigan is one of my favorite characters. So creepy and yet endearing! Cosplay? When I'm not half-asleep, I'll write a decent review. Probably. Maybe... ___________________________ So, why did you rate it "3-stars" on Goodreads, but on your blogs it says "3.5 stars"? Shouldn't that round up to 4 stars? No. ROUNDING IS NONEXISTENT. The 3 star rating was assigned because while I like this book, I didn't think it was good enough to be a four star book. ___________________________ Why I read it: Because it looked interesting and I had hear so much about it over the Facebook book clubs I participate in. Then the HS library got a copy. I was sold. Who should read it: Lovers of dark, creepy stories. Fae enthusiasts. What I'm thinking at this exact moment: Gawd, I'm so tired! No wonder it looks like I'm a raccoon. I don't sleep! D: with, strangely enough, Destiny's Child's Say My Name playing in the background. I scare myself. |
