It is definitely not my usual read. Check the trigger warning (I didn’t !!). But I liked it. The end got me hooked. I am left without word, it was so dark.

It’s been a long time since I’ve read YA, I’m not usually a fan of all the tropes that run rampant in the genre. House of Hollow is not that book. The one tripe I was worried it was developing was the “chosen one” trope but it didn’t! Hooray!

A good, twisty, quick read. Wouldn’t recommend reading at night alone if you scare easily, it put me on edge.
