Omens by Kelley Armstrong

5.0

I haven't read any Kelley Armstrong books (except for this one, duh) but I'm definitely going to be reading some more after Omens.

I enjoyed almost all aspects of this book, but the thing that most stood out to me was the idea. Sure, it followed the whole 'girl discovers something, her entire life is turned around and discovers she's special' story, but in an entirely unique way.

– While she is powerful, there are indications that those who she is mixing with, are powerful as well.
– Instead of feeling completely ostracized, she is welcomed into Cainsville.
– Her 'power' is such a unusual, yet brilliant idea. I never would have come up with it!

Above all; it's a dark, gritty story with an amazing protagonist. If you get the chance, I would definitely recommend that you pick this up.
