The Good Demon
by Jimmy Cajoleas
This book I borrowed from the library and wanted to keep it! I wanted to read it again and again! I first rated it 4 stars but I kept thinking about it so I upped the rating to a 5!
It's about a girl that gets possessed by a demon at the age of eight. The demon who she calls She or Her becomes the girl's best friend. At age 15, a boy tries to rape her and the demon takes control. The girl's stepdad gets mad at the girl, figures, then calls for someone to get the demon out of her. He really doesn't know for sure she has a demon but the wildness she showed could have been a traumatic experience. A preacher and his son comes and get rid of the girl's only friend.
The rest of the story is the girl following clues to get her demon back the demon left for her. I loved the clues, the back stories of everyone as the story evolves, the magic, fantasy, and suspense. Terrific characters!
It's a story that stayed with me long after I finished reading. Great read!
