A well written and unique YA horror. McBride integrates themes of identity, power, religion, and chosen family in a story that kept me reading. The blending of genres in this book worked well and the pacing was well done to keep the tension throughout.
I did struggle a bit with the way the first person narration reads at the beginning, you are dropped right into the story and have to work out some things about the world. But once I did I really appreciated the consistency of Faolan's voice and how their story unfolds.
