My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I picked this up because I met Niel Bushnell at an event and was curious. (Generally speaking, if I get on with people in real life, I tend to like their writing too). It’s billed as paranormal YA, but it’s not what you’d expect. It’s a story about a bully who learns to fly and the disruption that causes to her relationships.
Tam isn’t a nice person. In fact, she’s a bully. Abigail is her on/off victim. The two are bound together by the shared secret – the fact that Tam can fly.
There are three point of view characters in the story, each with their own problems. They’re not particularly nice girls (apart from Abi, maybe), but they’re all believable. I really enjoyed the story. It was refreshingly different.
