Behold the Bones by Natalie C. Parker
5.0
There's something about this series that is captivating and chilling. Perhaps it's the errie Shine of Sticks, LA seeping out of the pages? Whatever it is, I am a fan. It's dark, it's not cheesy, and best of all, it has the right kind of uncanny that leaves you motionless and deep in thought long after you've finished the book.
It had been quite a while since I read [b:Beware the Wild|13639182|Beware the Wild (Beware the Wild, #1)|Natalie C. Parker|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1391533548s/13639182.jpg|19252673] so I had to remember who Candace Pickens was and what kind of character she was. It's amazing how Natalie Parker spun such an amazing story out of an otherwise forgettable character. And that's what Candy was to me in Beware the Wild. She was meh. I was more focused on Sterling. However, in this book, Sterling (and Heath) have taken a backseat and Candy actually burned bright.
Everything ties together in this story. From Candy's ailment, the curse that plagues her, the new characters's role in their lives, and the girls' friendship. I feel a connection with this book and its setting, and that doesn't always happen. If the author decides to write a book about Abigail, I will definitely be reading that, too.
