I'm not ok. I slammed my book shut and threw it to the side and screamed, "I'M DONE!" My husband then proceeded to ask me if I was ok and my cat is looking at me like I'm crazy... DAMN YOU KRISTOFF!!!!!!!!!!

3.5 stars. This was a really cute and uplifting read. Our main character is ridiculously obsessed with Harry Potter, and mentions it ALL THE TIME. Frankly, it got annoying. Some of her attitude and actions I don't think were called for either. That is why this book lost some points for me. Other than that, it was really enjoyable, and these are the types of books that make me wish I had a sister. I suggest this is you want a light, fluffy, easy read. I was starting to slump and this helped me a lot!

Wooooo!! This book took me on quite a ride!!! Spensa...M-Bot...Doomslug... some of the best characters ever.

I loved the main characters development throughout the book. She really grew, questioned who she was, and found herself. I clung to every page on every word.
I'll admit, at times it felt slow, but it didn't last, and I still wanted to know what was going to happen. Spensa is really relatable in that almost everyone gets compared to a family member. Maybe a parent, a sibling, etc. She has to prove herself, that she is her own person. I found myself hoping for the best for her. What's not to love?

VERY much looking forward to continuing on this journey.

Where do I start? So much happened in this book, and it was all over the place! I don't mean this in a bad way though. Mystery/Fantasy with a gothic twist, you can't go wrong with that.

The story took all kinds of turns I wasn't expecting. We have a killer, and while I thought I had it figured it out, I was second guessing myself the whole time. Close to the end of the story, something is revealed that just throws you for a loop. The story just continues to get more and more weird from there.

There are A LOT of characters in the story. Honestly, I can only name a few, and I just finished the book. It wouldn't be a bad idea to take a note of these characters names when you start if you feel this is important. I love Annaleigh. She's a mess, and rightfully so after losing so much family. Her youngest sister Verity is a doll! I was indifferent to the love interest though.

I love how the author crafted this story. It was beautiful, haunting, and captivating. I was not expecting to love House of Salt and Sorrows as much as I did, but I will be thinking about this book for a while.
