The Replacement by Brenna Yovanoff
3.0
"The Replacement" is a different type of supernatural story that uses traditional lore of fairies and 'changelings' but turns it into a very modern and relevant novel.
I enjoyed the uniqueness of this book. (It's a nice change to be reading something that does not involve vampires or werewolves.) I enjoyed that this isn't a book with a cliche love triangle or misplaced hopes of becoming an overly long and tired trilogy. "The Replacement" is simply a good story with good character development and a different plot.
I did feel the ending was too rushed for the novel's somewhat sedated pace and I occasionally found Yovanoff's writing to be slightly lackluster. However, this book was overall a good read.
