Where Darkness Blooms by Andrea Hannah
5.0
*I want to thank NetGalley and Wednesday Books for this Advanced Reader Copy. “
“The land had always been parched but its thirst for blood was learned.”
With this first sentence I knew this was going to be a great book. The author did a great job at creating atmosphere. I felt a constant sense of dread and claustrophobia from the author’s description of Bishop and the surrounding sunflowers: “..Bo stood surrounded by yellow in every direction, the whispers swelled. The flowers bent their heads, their petals stretching to her like wiggling fingers. Their voices—they each had a distinct voice—begged to be heard.”
I found this to be a very well written story. And it is easily one of my favorites of the year .
