Unspoken
by Sarah Rees Brennan
The Lynburn Legacy, book one
Book Description:
Kami Glass is in love with someone she's never met—a boy she's talked to in her
head since she was born. This has made her an outsider in the sleepy English
town of Sorry-in-the-Vale, but she has learned ways to turn that to her
advantage. Her life seems to be in order, until disturbing events begin to
occur. There has been screaming in the woods and the manor overlooking the town
has lit up for the first time in 10 years. . . . The Lynburn family, who ruled
the town a generation ago and who all left without warning, have returned. Now
Kami can see that the town she has known and loved all her life is hiding a
multitude of secrets—and a murderer. The key to it all just might be the boy in
her head. The boy she thought was imaginary is real, and definitely and
deliciously dangerous.
Review:
This was my very first Sarah Rees Brennan book and I
wasn't quite sure what to expect, except that I had heard great things about her
earlier series. Well, if that series compares at all to this book, I will most
certainly be going back to read the Demon books.
This book sucked me right in. Perhaps it was the smart
protagonist. Perhaps it was that she was quirky and had an imaginary friend that
she talked to in her head. Perhaps it was her devoted friends and a town full of
dark secrets. It was everything. The atmosphere....the characters...the
danger...the tortured romance...
I cannot wait to dive back in to Kami's life in book two.
It cannot come out fast enough.
