The Dark We Know by Wen-yi Lee
4.0

Isadora Chang ran away from her town at 16 after the tragic deaths of two of her best friends. Two years later she returns to the strange town after the death of her abusive father and there is a reckoning that needs to happen. An evil in this town refuses to let Isadora get away for a second time.

Creepy in the best way is the how I would describe this book. Wen-Yi Lee weaves a story of curses, young love and fear all in one. Isa is an 18 year old girl that returns home after 2 years for her fathers funeral. We never find out exactly where this town is we know its small and there is a city pretty close by where Isa attends an Art School. Her art has been changing lately and it starts to predict things she can’t possibly imagine. With the help of her other childhood friend Mason, they follow the clues left in Isa’s drawings and try to bring this ancient evil haunting their town to an end. I really loved this book. Worth the read.
