Synopsis:
Grace Divine, daughter
of the local pastor, always knew something terrible happened the night
Daniel Kalbi disappeared--the night she found her brother Jude collapsed
on the porch, covered in his own blood--but she has no idea what a
truly monstrous secret that night held.
The memories her family
has tried to bury resurface when Daniel returns, three years later, and
enrolls in Grace and Jude's high school. Despite promising Jude she'll
stay away, Grace cannot deny her attraction to Daniel's shocking
artistic abilities, his way of getting her to look at the world from new
angles, and the strange, hungry glint in his eyes.
The closer
Grace gets to Daniel, the more she jeopardizes her life, as her actions
stir resentment in Jude and drive him to embrace the ancient evil Daniel
unleashed that horrific night. Grace must discover the truth behind the
boy's dark secret...and the cure that can save the ones she loves. But
she may have to lay down the ultimate sacrifice to do it--her soul.
I did not know what to expect from this book when I picked it up, but I am glad to say that I enjoyed it quite a lot.
It is hard for me to pinpoint what I liked about the book, and what exactly made it enjoyable for me.
For one, I enjoyed the religious aspect of the novel. I have never read a book about a "preacher's kid" before, therefore that aspect of the novel was very interesting to me.
I also really liked Daniel and Grace's dad. They were very likeable and I enjoyed reading about them.
What I thought was very cool, were the headings at the beginnings of all the scenes. They made the book a lot more organized and easier to read. This was very good for me, because I hate being confused when reading. When I'm confused, I'm frustrated and I take out my frustrations on the book and because of that I don't like the book.
This book was a very enjoyable read, but not a mind blowing one.
B+
Happy Reading!
