I don’t think this book is one that I’ll buy a copy for myself, but would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a new book to try. It’s one of those books that I neither loved nor hated it, but it was a nice filler book. And after reading it, I thought it was…ok. Thoughts: When I first heard about this book, I thought that it sounded intriguing, so I thought I’d check it out from my local library and give it a try. What they discover is a family they never knew and a history more tragic and fantastical than Hannah could have dreamed-one that stretches back to her grandmother’s childhood in Prague under the Nazi occupation, and beyond, into the realm of Jewish mysticism and legend. As the past comes crashing into the present, Hannah must hurry to unearth their family’s secrets in order to break the curse and save the people she loves most, as well as herself. But as the days turn to weeks and their mother doesn’t return, they realize it’s up to them to find the truth. Promising that she knows someone who can help, her mother leaves Hannah and Gabe behind to find a cure. No roots, no family but one another, and no explanations.Īll that changes on Hannah’s seventeenth birthday when she wakes up transformed, a pair of golden eyes with knife-slit pupils blinking back at her from the mirror-the first of many such impossible mutations.
Her mother has kept her and her brother, Gabe, on the road for as long as she can remember, leaving a trail of rental homes and faded relationships behind them. Amazon summary: Hannah’s whole life has been spent in motion. So, without further delay, let’s get down to business.
It’s been a fairly quiet week for me, which means I’ve been able to get a couple of books knocked off of my ‘to read’ list. Hello everyone! I hope you are having a good Friday/start to your weekend.
