MY REVIEW:
As a child, Wren read a lot of fairy tales. That's why, when the monsters came, she knew it was because she had been wicked.
"My sister thinks that she's the only one who can take poison, but I am poison," he whispers, eyes half-closed, talking to himself. "Poison in my blood. I poison everything I touch."
"You have an unusual voice," he says. "Raspy. Quite fetching, really."
"I damaged my vocal cords a long time ago," I inform him. "Screaming."
Black has a serious talent for writing phoenix protagonists. Girls who are abused, tortured and unloved take their futures into their own hands and wreak havoc to rise from the ashes and get what they want. I am here for every moment and cannot wait to see what burns next.
As we trek across the snow, I am careful to walk lightly so that I can stay on top of the icy crust. But it still spider-webs with every step. My dress billows around me, caught by the cold wind. I realize that I am still barefoot.
Another girl might have frozen, but I am cold all the way through.
