The Furies by Katie Lowe
4.0
OK so I will keep this short and sweet. The Furies is a masterpiece that if it isnt The Craft fanfic, its most definitely has a very strong resemblance in places to one of my favourite movies of all time and well and truly fills the shoes of a well crafted homage.
Each character has its place in the tried and tested group of four strong teens who make up the headlining cast in this one. The the snobby one, the new girl, the weirdo and the tagger along who has an opinion but is just a little sheeple.
The pace stays relatively fast in the majority of places, only slowing down for artistic effect.
If you are a person who does not condone underage drinking, drug use and illegal behaviour, this novel may not be for you. Also of note is a lowkey rape (its not graphic, its more a plot device), inappropriate behaviour towards a minor and animal sacrifice.
Overall its a well written exploration of teenage angst and the perils of interfering in business that doesnt concern you.
If you want to read more of my thoughts, you can find them at #thefuries by Katie Lowe is the perfect exploration into teenage angst and the problems that can arise when you meddle with the wrong peoples business.
It felt like an homage to one of my favourite 90's movies and I would def read it again
