Review for Darkness Becomes Her by Kelly Keaton (5 cat review):
 


What lies inside, is what matters...

Ari has snow white hair, and neon blue/green eyes. No matter what she tries, her hair always grows back to the exact same length and returns to the same color. It brings unwanted attention to her. She hates it.

Ari returns to New 2, the New Orleans of the future, after two fatal hurricanes. New 2 is inhabited with the  paranormal: witches, shape-shifters, demi-gods, vampires, and all sorts of mythical creature. And Ari is one of them. She just doesn't know it yet. Every woman in her family has been dead by the age of 21. All either murdered or suicide. Its a curse. One that Ari is determined to remove.

I loved this book. It was so creative. It was a mix of the Hunger Games and Born at Midnight, with a little bit of its own twist. Kelly Keaton created a book that had suspense, romance (just a little), action, badass-ness,and that pain that lives inside each tortured character. That pain that brings them all together.

Ari was a strong female character that wasn't afraid of anything. I strongly related with her and she wasn't weak. I have always looked down on girls who need men to take care of them; to a certain extent. Ari opened herself up to Sebastian, a boy she meets in New 2, and they become inseparable.

Darkness Becomes Her has a little bit of everything and a great read. Check it out ASAP!


Cheers,
Jessica
