Very conflicted on this one.

I can't say that I actually enjoyed this story, but it was entertaining. Kind of. I could actually see this story playing out as a movie, and I think I would have liked it much better if that was the case. It gave me a bit of a Beautiful Creatures vibe, but this story wasn't quite as fleshed-out as BC was, sadly. I felt like we were just thrown into Eleanor's family's world, without any context, and I never quite caught up, and then it just ended. I didn't like that we weren't ever really given an explanation of Eleanor's "abilities". It definitely felt as if something was missing.
I appreciate the idea of this story, and I was excited to read it, especially because of that cover, but sadly this one didn't work for me. I definitely wish I had enjoyed this book more, as I'd definitely love to have a copy on my shelf, for the cover alone!

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the review copy.
