Helpful Score: 10
I am SO in love with this book. It has gone straight to the top of my "Best of" list (don't hold it against me that I actually don't have a "Best of" list but if I did, this book would be on it). I loved this book so much that this morning, I walked my dog while reading the book. Thankfully, my dog is very well trained and knew that oncoming cars meant stop.
Now about the book, Rose is a wonderful character. If you ever read Jeaniene Frost's "Night Huntress" series, Rose is very similiar to Kat. Rose has an incredible heart, very loving to her two brothers, will do whatever it takes to care for them but is also suffering from some serious self esteem issues. She righfully doesn't trust anyone but her own small family but she also doesn't want to let in someone who may/or may not truly care for her. She wonders how someone could possibly really want her, considering her circumstances. The only part of Rose that Rose is confident about is her own magic. Of course, Rose's magic is what has made her more of an outsider in a world of outsiders.
The other characters are truly wonderful. The boys (Rose's brothers) absolutely make you laugh and cry. Even though they are different from "normal" kids, you will find yourself relating to your own siblings and how you felt about them. Declan is arrogant, snobby and powerful. William is mysterious, sweet and innocent in a weird way. The Grandma cracked me up. Each character surrounding Rose is well thought out and is essential to the story. Please read this book. You won't regret it.
