Read from February 05 to 20, 2012

I won this book from Giveaways (thanks!) and it was a real mind twisting tale. It took me a while to get into it and then besides being pretty confusing was interesting and mostly entertaining. I guess a book about psychic schools and psychic attacks and dead mothers sending emails and people "vanishing" is bound to be a little confusing.

At the core of this book, it is a story about mother's and daughters. And even the absence of a mother. And grief. And revenge.

Really. It's that crazy and confusing.
