Book Review - The Skeleton Song - Angela Kulig

Title:  The Skeleton Song (The Hollows Series Book)

Author:  Angela King

Review:   Drowning might not be the way most adventures start, but it is the only way at Skeleton Lake. When Death is your only companion, darkness is always on the horizon.

In the prequel to SKELETON LAKE, Cassie chooses the wrong brother. That leads to a series of events that take all of her choices away. For in a world of beautiful bones and false flesh, sometimes life after death is a killer.

I took the premise from Amazon because I wasn't sure how I would describe the book.

I am not sure what to say. The book is very haunting and stayed with me well after I turned my Kindle off.  The writing style of the author is almost poetic and very lyrical creating a world that will haunt you. As a prequel it was interesting enough to pull me to read the next in the series but at the same time it was almost somewhat depressing to find three souls pulled apart unable to find peace.  I would get confused because I wasn't sure what Cassie looked like because I knew she was suppose to be a Skeleton but she also had skin to cover her bones. The author created such an amazing character with Cassie that you felt overwhelmed and confused when she was overwhelmed and confused. I have to admit she dived in the teen psychology and depression that will make you heart hurt for the three characters. 

I have lots of questions but I am assuming they will be answered in the next book.

I have to admit I love the fact that Angela Kulig found an unexplored area of the YA paranormal genre.

Mentioned on twitter and found it on Kindle Unlimited.
