Melissa Albert does it again. In the third five-star book of the month, Our Crooked Hearts uses a dual point of view to tell the story of a daughter and mother driven apart by secrets. While this is the story of a daughter/mother relationship, it is also about magic, the type of magic one should never attempt. Our Crooked Hearts takes some dark turns, as one would expect of anyone familiar with Ms. Albert’s previous novels, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. She kept me guessing until the last, and I love how it ends. To me, her third novel solidifies Ms. Albert’s talent and proves she is an author who excels at writing dark, modern Gothic stories.
