Wednesday Reviews



I was looking through my bookcase today to see if there were any books I had read recently that I haven't mentioned on my blog and I was surprised to see this one. I don't believe I forgot to tell you how much I enjoyed this book--Bree Despain's debut novel, The Dark Divine. It's a great read. The plot felt fresh and different (which is saying a lot considering how much YA I read) and I loved the relationships.

blurb from jacket flap:

"Grace Divine--daughter of the local pastor--always knew something terrible happened the night Daniel Kalbi diappeared and her brother Jude came home covered in his own blood. Now that Daniel's returned, Grace must choose between her growing attraction to him and her loyalty to her brother. AS Grace gets closer to Daniel, she learns the truth about that mysterious night and how to save the ones she loves, but it might cost her the one thing she cherishes most: her soul."

  2. Yeah, Janet, I guess that would be good to mention. lol I added a sentence to the post about my favorite things. Basically, the story line felt fresh, not blurred with all the other YA I've been reading lately. And I liked the relationships. Not only the one with her and the boy, but with her father and brother as well. It kept me reading.

  5. I met Bree and she gave me a bottle of Dark Divine purple nail polish, so you know she's cool. I liked her book, too.
