Foxlowe is a crumbling old house on the moors but to
Green, it is a special place. Foxlowe is the only place she knows. In
Foxlowe, Green can do whatever she wants. She can run through the
hallways, eat desserts whenever she wants, and be free of daily hassles.
At
Foxlowe, the family shares everything. They perform special rituals to
protect themselves from the Bad. Everyone is content living at Foxlowe
until Blue, Green's little sister, grows up and dreams of being in the
Outside. She talks about become a Leaver; one of the unmentionables.
The
writing style of this book wasn't my favorite. I found it to be quite
annoying and made it harder for me to enjoy the novel. I couldn't bond
with Green and had a hard time understanding why she did certain things
and why she showed Freya so much loyalty. The book was a bit slow and
didn't have much going on. I also didn't like that there were parts of
the story that they didn't explain. For example, who were Blue's
parents? There were several time jumps that made the book confusing in
the later parts of the novel. Overall, this book was a bit of a letdown
and difficult to get into. I would recommend reading a sample before
buying.
