Review: The Replacement by Brenna Yovanoff

I have wanted to read this book for a long time. But I have been a bit unsure about it. But then in December, I read Brenna's second book; The Space Between. And I really liked that one. So today I finally started this book. I was not supposed to finish it right away, but I could not stop reading.

It is amazing. I loved the writing, and I love that the whole book is from a guy's POV. Or rather, Mackie. I really enjoyed it. It was exciting from beginning to end, something was always happening. I loved all the characters, every single one. Especially his sister, Emma :)

Mackie is a great leading character, and I loved him. He is a bit.. special. But oh, I loved loved loved that about him. It just made it all so much better. He is also kind, and loving, and funny. And very lovable.

The plot is kind of amazing. I loved everything about it. Don't want to say much, because that would be a bit spoilery, but I enjoyed it all :) Found it to be very interesting, and kind of very belivable. Which I don't always do while reading books.

One of the bad guys, The Lady, made me picture the blind witch in Hansel and Gretel; the Once Upon A Time edition that aired last night. Which made it all so much better ;)

I don't have a whole lot to say about this book, other than the fact that it is amazing. And a must read. I was a bit sceptic because of the summary, but it so so so much better that I thought it would be. <3
