After Clare gets an exorcism, she's desperate to get the demon (referred to as Her) back because she was her only friend. Clare has a complicated life. Her mom and stepdad drink and are belligerent. Her dad passed away and she's still coping. Clare finds herself on an adventure through town while trying to get Her back.

There was an almost fairytale like quality to the story with a gothic atmosphere. I enjoyed the mix of mystery and horror throughout. My one complaint is the rushed ending. I wish things could've been expanded on. This was a great, unique little story I'd recommend to anyone who enjoys young adult horror and wants something a little different. This one was fun.


I won this through goodreads in exchange for an honest review.
