It is a pleasant read and I think the writer has the ability to create a strong YA fan base, because she has a good concept and interesting ideas, which lean away from the usual vamp/were, but still remains true to the supernatural/fantasy genre. Phae has powers she cannot control, powers she has inherited from her mother, who is both schizo and powerful. Phaes brother returns from his travels with a cure, an incubus, but he in turn is being chased by hags. I think there is an underlying story about abuse in here that is a sideline but still knocks loudly upon the moral compass, so kudos to the writer for that. It's hard to pinpoint what is not exactly right with this book, which is full of original ideas and strong characters and yet it wasn't as good as it could be. I think it could do with some editing, to remove some minor glitches. perhaps the writer should go over some parts of it, because it was often so quick and rushed, due to the amount of creativity rushing through it at 100 mph, that now and again it appeared jumbled. I received a free copy of this book for my review.
