Author Rory Power's Sophomore book is a hit!
Burn Our Bodies Down is a fantastic book for people who love a creepy thriller and teen angst at the same time. Rory Power has not failed to thrill her readers again!
Margot Neilson doesn't know where she comes from. For her whole life, she has just had her mom, well, not exactly a mom who is reliable, a mom who is loving, a mom who cares for her kid more than herself. She seems to take care of her mom more than her mom took care of her. Then, one day she finds a clue to her family that her mom won't talk about and things turn from there. The people that Margot meets on her journey to finding her family are not what you would expect, not who they say there are, and are utterly, deliciously page-turning drivers!
Ms. Powers creates a world of intrigue, confusion, and thrill. Her characters are fresh, believable, and yet, so otherworldly, you're not sure you're really where you are. Yes, this is a book for Young Adults, but Adults will love, love, love this book too. This book reminds me a twinge of Nothing To See Here by Kevin Wilson just by the intrigue, and unusual fire background. If you liked Nothing to See Here or Ms. Power's freshman novel Wilder Girls this book is for you.
P.S. Don't read this book at bedtime unless you want to have nightmares like I did... 😉
4.5 Stars!
Thanks, NetGalley, Random House Children's, and author Rory Powers for the opportunity to read this book in lieu of my honest review.
