The Girl from the Well by Rin Chupeco

5.0

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was such a unique and thrilling tale of an old Japanese folklore. I loved how the author used such freedom her writing created such distinct voices for each character. The haunting voice of the main character was such a staccato you could almost feel the pain it took for her to try to communicate.
While I admit I was at first confused by the violence and aggression at the beginning of the book, as well as the duel plot lines, I soon found myself so captivated by the events unfolding at all my confusion was forgotten. New and exciting characters and sceneries where introduced and the main theme began blossoming.
I couldn't get enough of this book. I cannot wait for this author to write more. A great debut!
