This book gave me the same feelings as I got when reading paranormal books like twilight but much better. The story follows Winnie Wednesday as she tries to become a Luminary Hunter after her family had been exiled four years ago.
Winnie is a likable smart character while also being a teenage girl making dumb decisions. I am also invested in her friendship with Jay Friday and a secret i think he is hiding.
The forest in the book and all the mythical creatures were my favorite part. This is a great start to a series and having read the second book it only gets better.
I recommend this to people who like YA paranormal books.
