#75: Darkness Becomes Her - Kelly Keaton

Synopsis & Book Info:
Ari can’t help feeling lost and alone. With teal eyes and freakish silver hair that can’t be changed or destroyed, Ari has always stood out. And after growing up in foster care, she longs for some understanding of where she came from and who she is.
Her search for answers uncovers just one message from her long dead mother: Run. Ari can sense that someone, or something, is getting closer than they should. But it’s impossible to protect herself when she doesn’t know what she’s running from or why she is being pursued.
She knows only one thing: she must return to her birthplace of New 2, the lush rebuilt city of New Orleans. Upon arriving, she discovers that New 2 is very...different. Here, Ari is seemingly normal. But every creature she encounters, no matter how deadly or horrifying, is afraid of her.
Ari won’t stop until she knows why. But some truths are too haunting, too terrifying, to ever be revealed.

My Opinion:
This is one of the most fascinating stories around!
Greek Gods, vampires and shapeshifters... now who wouldn't call that exciting?!
This story of Ari is so cool, as I was getting to the end, I was wishing it would keep going. I didn't want the story to end, and ironically the author creatively left room for more to be written. I have no idea if this is a plan though.
I really loved it. The way New Orleans was changed, yet familiar. The cool characters that were each different, and the sense of mystery that wrapped the whole book, make this one of my new favorites!


5/5


Recommend? Most definitely!
