Maybe it’s that our protagonist is not the hero of this story.
Maybe it’s the amount of bloodshed and death. There is something very deliciously dark about this book. It is fabulous and perfect for readers who enjoyed the work of Cassandra Clare and Alexandra Bracken.
I’m going to be putting this book in our school library’s paranormal collection and I just know that I won’t be able to keep it on the shelf. And, it turns out that Nick, a legendary monster slayer, will do everything in his power to wipe out monsters for good. But when she accidentally travels herself a day into the future, Joan realises that her family isn’t just a little strange, they are gifted with the ability to steal time from others and use it to time travel. Doesn’t hurt that her co-worker Nick is gorgeous, charming and, maybe, as into her as she is him. She also loves the time she spends volunteering at the historic Holland House. She knows they’re a little strange but they’re family. Joan spends every summer with her mother’s family in London. An almost love triangle that just doesn’t go there. Monsters (not like strange creature monsters, more like scary people monsters who do bad things). It’s unique and delicious.Īustralia author. It’s dark but funny, placed so well within the world that has been created and yet we get to journey across time. By the first quarter of the book all but two of the characters we have met have been gloriously, brutally murdered.
