Absolutely loved this book by Tarryn Fisher!! It was my first time reading anything by her and she has a new fan in me! I normally stay away from the darker reads but something about the synopsis made me want to read. I am so happy I went with my gut and gave this book a chance. This book def isn't for the faint of heart. There are a lot of disturbing moments but it's real life. I'm glad Fisher didn't gloss over everything and made it sunshine and roses.Bad things happen and life isn't perfect . In life there isn't always a happy ending. Margo lives in a town called Marrow nicknamed The Bone. She has a hooker for a mother, who always puts her down.Her father isn't in the picture. Margo is pretty much a loner and sticks to herself. One day a little girl is killed and Margo gets fed up. She pissed, she's angry and wants justice but knows there will never be any. So she decides enough is enough and seeks out her own justice. Margo embarks on a vigilante killing spree. I honestly enjoyed the concept of this storyline. It had me at the edge of my seat and I couldn't put the book down. There was a twist in the book that still has me reeling. I am so happy I stepped outside my comfort zone and read this book. 4.5 stars

Wow. This book took me on a roller coaster. I fell like I still have so many questions about Margo and her psyche. And Judah??? What is going on here? I am a huge believer in karma. But this book takes karma and justice to a whole new level. This book truly rocked me. Highly recommend!

Quizá esté sea el libro que más me gustó y me confundió de Tarryn Fisher, a pesar de lo mucho que me gustó Mud Vein. Debería volver a leerlo porque muchas cosas en la primera lectura no las pillé y el final me explotó tanto la mente que solo me dejó muy muy confundida.

Tarryn es mi escritora favorita, no estoy segura de que este mundo esté preparado para la pluma oscura y sin piedad de ella, pero, tengo unos problemitas con este libro.

La historia es asombrosa y para quién haya seguido a Tarryn a través de sus libros todos estos años, sabe que este tiene pequeños pero significativos guiños.

Aunque no sé le faltaba algo en la narración; me sentía como si Tarryn no fuera Tarryn y me estuvieran contado una cosa creada por ella y su mente retorcida pero escrito por otra persona. Había páginas enteras en la que sentía que estaba en un desierto sin agua y solo estaba leyendo por inercia porque en serio era muuuuuy pesado.

El final valió todo mi esfuerzo a través del desierto, pero, no le doy más calificación que 3Stars.

This one kept me on my toes. Although the ending left me unsure of a lot of things, maybe that was the intent. It was a twisting story though with a lot of psychological issues.
