The burning tree box set books 1-5 I m not quite sure what I expected when I read this but it wasn t what I got However once I let go of my expectations and just went with it the story had a real cozy homey kind of feel to it I ve lived in smaller towns most of my life and the setting really hit this one on the head for me It has barefoot walking in the woods simple life meshed with a small vein of mysterious folk tale darkness It s not quite creepy per say but there s a haunting nostalgic quality to the tone that is rather interesting The story kind of gave me backwoods Romeo and Juliet vibes XD These two families warring against one another but also there s this third clan that wants nothing to do with the war All wrapped in a generational curse a funky oracle woman and three MCs who really aren t equipped for the quest they re thrust into I particularly felt intrigued by the dynamics of these three kids who were so hostile to one another There were hints of the neutral clan feeling ignored or not valuable because of the raging hostility between the two main warring families but we didn t dig as far into that as I had hoped But the story did focus on things and people having a depth beyond what we first assume I liked the layers we pulled back in both the characters and the plot Content no foul language only some mild fantasy violence focus on a sickness than anything else and clean romance The story deals with motivations in our hearts prejudice truth and forgiveness Suitable for probably 13 14 As a note I did have the honor of proofreading this manuscript But the thoughts above are my honest freely given thoughts 3 256 Do not let unforgiveness take root in your heart. Book burning today I was kinda expecting a different kind of story but this is a new to me story that s published under Enclave Publishing The vibes the mystery and suspense and all of the characters are so interesting This book kinda felt like a Jaime Jo Wright novel plus a little bit Monster House and Stranger Things I literally have to stop myself from reading or else I would have finished this book in one sitting This was a little spooky but fun read for me I will definitely be on the lookout for this author s next book Got an early e copy from the publisher and author but above thoughts are my own 256 Official endorsement Sparkling with witty prose and packed with complex relationships Helen Dent s debut draws a timely picture of a world in which inherited prejudice has reduced a once healthy community to self interested tribalism As we follow a tenacious and imperfect heroine in her race to save her sister we readers are gently invited to wonder where our own points of view may be incomplete Equal parts dystopia and modern fairy tale The Burning Tree is not one to miss Hanna C Howard author of Our Divine Mischief and Ignite the Sun 256 I really enjoyed this YA Contemporary Fantasy debut by Helen Dent This story reminded me of the books The Way We Fall by Megan Crewe and Curses and Other Buried Things by Caroline George The atmosphere of this story is perfect for a fall read and has just the right amount of spookiness Ellie the main character knows that there is something not right with where she lives and the people who live in the small town with her When her sister ends up in a coma she gets pulled into having to navigate a generational feud and breaking a curse on her town in order to save her sister This story has small town secrets a generational feud mystery suspense and shows the power of family and forgiveness.
