First line/s: "I was ten years old the first time I realized I was strange."
My comments: What a very odd story - creepy and disturbing. Lots of horrible odors and ghastly sites described so that you almost gag yourself as you listen. It was fascinating as well as unenjoyable. I'd love to find out what happens in book two, but I don't think I can take it! Very, very difficult to rate this book, as I liked it and I hated it....
Goodreads synopsis: Seventeen-year-old Iris Hollow has always been strange. Something happened to her and her two older sisters when they were children, something they can’t quite remember but that left each of them with an identical half-moon scar at the base of their throats.
As Iris retraces Grey’s last known footsteps and follows the increasingly bizarre trail of breadcrumbs she left behind, it becomes apparent that the only way to save her sister is to decipher the mystery of what happened to them as children.
The closer Iris gets to the truth, the closer she comes to understanding that the answer is dark and dangerous – and that Grey has been keeping a terrible secret from her for years.
