I really, really enjoyed this. Very dark for a YA novel though, no? Like it felt very YA at times, but with very graphic violence and body horror. I read it together with my 12 year-old daughter and there were quite a few times I asked her (and myself): "is this okay for you?"

I loved the tie-in to old Sidhe legend and any time something sounded like a reference to an actual part of the real life myth we looked it up to see how close it was.
