Another book that I started a long time ago and just circled back to trying again. Obviously I liked what I read enough to get half way into the book. Yet, not enough to keep me reading and finishing the book. I picked it up again and just started from where I left off. I do like Darcy's ability as a Shade to turn invisible. Although she was not able to sustain it all the time as she was still learning how to use her ability. The story read for the younger reading audience. This is fine but I was wanting more. There are young adult novels that can translate for both the younger and older audience alike but I did not think this one achieved this goal. The last half of the story was fine. There was some action but most of it is unmemorable. An alright ending but nothing in this book that would make me want to continue reading this series.
