The Shape of Darkness

This was my first Laura Purcell book, and I really liked it.

I wasn't sure initially, but once I got into it I didn't want to stop! I buddy read it with a friend, so it was read in 4 parts, but it was hard to refrain myself from continuing past our agreed stop points!

Agnes came across quite weak at times, well throughout most of the story, and I have to wonder if that was deliberately done by the author, to take away from the fact that there was more to Agnes then met the eye. If that was the case, then it was brilliantly done!

As for poor Pearl, I felt so bad her. Her sister was absolutely horrid and that's no exaggeration!

Thank you to NetGalley, publisher Raven Books and Laura Purcell for an eARC of this book.
