The Furies by Katie Lowe

3.0

This was a fine book. For all the press about it - I was hoping to like it a little more than I did - but I did enjoy reading it. The story is enjoyable - the comparisons to the Craft, Pretty Little Liars, etc are all apt comparisons and setting the book 20 years in the past was a nice touch (wow can you believe 1998 was 20 years ago?!). None of the characters are quite likable - but that's what made the story work well.

The chapters are LONG - the whole book is only 17 chapters, and I found it a little challenging to follow the narrative of events at a few times - I would ask myself how they got to a party etc. In the end the story pulled together well and it was a great October read.

Thanks for NetGalley for a free copy in exchange for an honest review.
