Man this was disappointing. Started off promising but the characters all felt extremely one dimensional and the plot was pretty predictable. 

To be fair I probably would have liked reading this in middle school. I picked it off the shelf because my library categorized it as adult fiction and magical realism. IMO it's neither of the above -- this is YA fantasy with some extra dark topics. And underdeveloped characters, lol.

If you wondered what it would look like if “Speak” and “Coraline” had a baby, wonder no more
