The Boy Who Could See Demons by Carolyn Jess-Cooke
3.0
This book was more of an 3.5 stars.
Alex is a young boy who lives with his mom in not the greatest of environments. She has tried to commit suicide several times and they are dirt poor. Alex is such an unusual boy though. He is way smarter than his years and there is the fact that he sees demons. In particular one demon named Ruen. Ruen appears to him mostly as a old man.
Ruen says he is helping Alex and I do see that he does that somethings but all in all-he is a shit. Being a demon allows that though.
Anya steps in to help the family. Mostly you know what happens when peole get involved "helping" someone. The mom and Alex both end up in the hospital. I did like Anya though. Her heart was in the right place but she was dealing with demons of her own.
That frigging ending though!
I did recieve a copy of this book from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
