» PLOT «
Rumored to be a witch, Nora and her family have had a special connection with the woods. One day, during the full moon, Nora finds a missing boy, Oliver, in a state of near death. With no reason to why he should've survived, and with no memories, Nora and Oliver work to find out what really happened the night a boy disappeared and another died.
That double plot twist ending! My heart broke at the fact thatOliver was dead , but I am so glad that obstacle was demolished by Nora's nightshade/ability.
» READABILITY «
This was a surprisingly easy read, and it was medium paced.
» CHARACTERS «
Nora, Oliver, and Mr. Perkins were great, but everyone else suuuucked. For beingguilty of aiding a murder , they are surprisingly chill and open about everything.
» WRITING «
The writing made the book really easy to read, but it's nothing all that special.
» OVERALL «
I am surprised. When I first go this book, I was thinking this would be 5 stars. Then I did a bad thing and read the full synopsis, and thought this might be 2 stars. But then I READ THE BOOK, and it was 4 or 5 stars. :) lul
