Serena by Ron Rash

3.0

Just finished this book. It is dark and twisty and hard to describe....and I'm having trouble deciding if this was a fantastic story or a horrible one.

It was exceptionally well written, the characters are very developed and you feel like you can see the mountains that are being described. There are so many pieces of the story that are happening at once, and it is like the story takes a turn to the dark side, and the characters barely realize the path they have just started down. Serena is one of the coldest, fiercest characters I've ever read. A part of me respects her for her strength, but she truly has no soul, which becomes painfully clear as the story moves forward.

Overall, I liked it, but I hated how much I ended up hating most of the characters. It's hard to enjoy a story when you are hoping for their demise.
