The Cemetery Boys

No. Just no.
To begin, I usually give up on books I don't like- I don't push through and finish them. This one was okay in the beginning, then got progressively worse, and then I was just so close to finishing....I'm gonna be honest here, I kind of hung in there because I wanted to see Stephen eaten by horrible bird creatures.
It started out okay, things about Stephen bothered me, but I had some pity for his situation so I gave him some rope. I HATED the way he treated Cara. I hated the way he judged everyone in town and then griped that they were judging him. I did not understand the town history or the legend of the Winged Ones. None of the stories were given as evidence made any sense. We had a reservoir that caused train accidents and drownings and also human sacrifices and theater fires.....and ???????? Most of this felt like “the troubles” from Haven- with no heroes around to stop them.
Add in the coldest grandmother ever....
Just, no. Not for me.
