The Keeper of Night was my November pick for the Book of the Month subscription. And I was so glad that I picked this book up. It blew me away, and I now want the second book ASAP!
The Keeper of Night is different from what I am used to reading from the YA fantasy genre. The main character, Ren, is a morally grey character, which is very surprising to read. Usually, the YA fantasy book characters are the honest ones or the naive ones, but Ren is different from the others. She is mortally grey from the beginning, and I love it so much. It's a different start that kept my attention throughout The Keeper of Night.
Keep an eye out for the minor details in The Keeper of Night because it will make sense in the end. Expect the unexpected. Keep that in mind.
