Sin and Bones
After a horrific incident, Eve Carter is sent across the state to live with her nan. Though she struggles to adjust to a future she hadn’t anticipated being around for, gaining distance from her abusers and traumatic past might just be the fresh start she needs.
But despite her new, unexpected friendships and the reprieve from her family’s suffocating expectations, Eve’s past continues to haunt her. Desperate and angry, Eve knows she will only find peace if her abusers pay for their crimes. When her new friends reveal secret identities and hidden, magical realms, she discovers that serving justice may be simpler than she thought.
Eve is no longer willing to play the helpless victim, and she will risk everything to rid herself of her villains once and for all. But when plans go sideways and she becomes entangled in the politics of another realm, Eve will need to decide who to trust if she wishes to satisfy her craving for retribution.

An excellent genesis of a dark fantasy series!
I love dark fantasy a lot, so I was so excited to delve into this book. With that said, let’s start with the easy thing first: the cover? Amazing. It invokes a mystique around Eve and sets an expectation that is well followed throughout the book. It really encapsulates the tone the book establishes. With that out of the way, let’s delve into the review! (minor spoilers ahead)
The pacing of the story is nothing short of excellent, and Paige really has a way of packing so much information into the narrative that tells you so much about even minor characters in just a few short sentences. Because of this alone, I was able to devour the book in a way that I haven’t since Hunger Games and Percy Jackson.
Eve is such a haunted, unique character that you really sympathize and empathize with. Between her trauma and precarious living circumstances, there is so much that really connects you to her early on; that’s what makes the happenstance of her being plunged into the world of the fae all the more daunting. She is already adopting a burden of darkness that somehow is being overshadowed by inhuman political machinations, yet, the determined girl she is, will still persist in her retribution against her abusers.
The rest of the cast invoke captivation throughout the story. Sage and her problematic love, Hailey and her desire to yearn, and Liam’s sassy, lackadaisical demeanor atop his mysterious condition. Again, because of the pacing, you really learn so much about them in a short time that weaves the undertones of the narrative in a way you really formulate theories and ideas around them in retrospect. I held onto minute details of earlier scenes, and when you were given revelations later on, it all made sense perfectly.
All in all, Sin and Bones is an exciting EVE of a series I can’t wait to read more of!

An amazing start to this dark fantasy series! I love the author’s writing style. I thought the setting and tone of this book were perfect for a fall read.
I loved getting to know Eve as well as all the side characters. I enjoyed the dynamic of Eve and Liam especially. I had great empathy for Eve and the traumas she has endured and found myself really rooting for her. I look forward to the next book!
