Brother is an absolute stunner of a novel - a masterpiece of constant dread and tension, a harrowing work of character building, and a bleak, dark, unforgettable reading experience. Going in, I expected a slasher tied with elements of coming of age ro ...more |

I first read 'The Long Halloween' several years ago, and loved that story even with multiple rereads. But it was somehow only recently I discovered it had a sequel - this sequel - and I might love Dark Victory even more. Following directly on from the ...more |

Thanks to NetGalley and Delacorte Press for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. Kiersten White is definitely becoming one of my autobuy authors. Even though The House of Quiet was a YA novel, it definitely had a deep enoug" Read more of this review » |

“I screamed last night, and felt the sharp, reflective elements boring into my skull. I felt such deep, intense devotions, the kind of emotions it is only possible to experience in nightmares.

“Glass always drew my eyes, or my mind. That reflection — the mirror, and the Other Body inside it. I wanted to turn off my mind but it was impossible. So many terrible, monstrous things buzzed around inside of it like electric knife blades, cutting, cutting, cutting.”

“Acting is my whole life. It’s this one thing I am good at. But what if it isn’t good at me? I don’t look like an actor, actors are supposed to be beautiful. I look like me. And that isn’t good enough.”
