This book was not what I thought it would be. I was expecting a YA story of teenagers dealing with powers and the usual emotions and perils of becoming a young adult, but it was so much more. It tackled some heavy themes and really made me reflect on why people do bad things. Are they inherently evil? How do people become bad? So many philosophical questions went through my mind reading this and every time I put the book down, it would stay with me.
I think this is one book that will be in my thoughts for a while. I highly recommend this book, as I think it can challenge your thinking. It's dark but it's also full of hope as well.
