Grim by Thea Atkinson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I was pleasantly surprised by this book. Not having read any of Thea’s work before, I didn’t know what to expect, so I kept my expectations fairly low. Imagine my surprise when I could not put this book down! There are some minor plot flaws in there (and a fair number of typos; I read an advance copy and assume that most have been corrected), but it happens and is something I can easily overlook if the overall work is good. And this is. From the beginning, nothing goes as you might expect. The primary character starts out to help a friend and finds her life irrevocably changed in the process. Quite an interesting set of twists and turns that will keep you feeling off-balance. And a great setup for future books in the series. There are so many avenues and characters to explore, even the ones that you are going to love to hate. Definitely worth picking up if you want a quick read with a good pace. If you like the supernatural without gratuitous sex and violence, with a touch of darkness, give this a read!
