Andrew Schoneweis andrew_schoneweis — This is dark, passionate, bloody and creepy - and I really enjoyed it. Silla discovered her parents dead in a pool of their own blood, her mother apparently murdered by her father, who then killed himself. This has left deep scars on her psyche, and it continues to play on her mind through the novel. As you can imagine, this is a pretty bloody start to the story, and the blood continues to flow right until the end as all magic requires a blood sacrifice. This might be the most bloody book I have ever read, and it did disturb me a little bit. I love tales of magic, but I never found myself wishing I could do this magic, as I have with Hogwarts magic in the past. It isn't aspirational, this magic is just a little bit sick... there were too many mentions of cutting, blood smearing and dead carcasses for it to be anything other than dark and gritty. The story is told through split perspectives... there's Silla and also Nick, the new boy in town with a faint recollection of a disturbing childhood exposure to magic. So when he stumbles across Silla experimenting with her father's old notebook in the nearby cemetery one evening, he is drawn right in. The relationship between Silla and Nick develops into a very hot teen romance very quickly, but it is written well and is believable. There's plenty of kissing, yearning and so on! There is also a third narrative voice which is delivered through excerpts of an old diary. Initially this meant the story was a little slow to get going, but I loved how the diary excerpts moved through to the present day and illuminated the current goings on more and more... it really built the pace up until I couldn't put this book down. I also enjoyed how the POVs from Nick and Silla frequently picked up immediately from one to the other seamlessly within a scene; this also helped the flow of the book. The one thing that I found myself not enjoying so much was all Silla's talk of the masks she made herself wear to cope with the world. I understand the idea, but it frequently jarred me out of the text to try and visualize the particular mask. It wasn't necessary and I could have done without it really. I did like the tiny nod to Maggie Stiefvater in there though. That was a lovely touch. I really can't give this five stars, even though I read it very quickly. It is very well written - the plot is intricate and surprising - but I just can't *love* something so bloody. I wouldn't let anyone under 14 near this.
