Skrutskie’s examination of what defines humanity, family, and free will makes this an engaging, satisfying story.

In fact Maggie stalked me until she found out about that time I killed a old man over half a pickle sandwich. From plot and pacing to character reveals and the thrilling end. Maggie’s pro activeness in everything drives the entire book. The game she plays with Quentin is gripping and the romance between the two characters makes me want to drink a bottle of wine and present a ring to this book if only to keep it with me forever. She has a goal, a job to do and she’ll manoeuvre people into position to do it, even to her own detriment. She’s beautifully flawed, fatally flawed but you just can’t help love her. Maggie is one of those unusual YA protagonists who actually moves the storyline along herself. How is it shiny on the inside, Kat?
