The Diviners by Libba Bray

4.0

what a swell book.
WARNING: IF YOU ARE SCARED EASILY DO NOT READ THIS BOOK. OR JUST READ IT IN THE DAY. WHICH IS WHAT I HAD TO DO COZ I GOT NIGHTMARES.

i didn't really know what this book was about but DAMN OMG IT'S GOOD BUT SO CREEPY. NAUGHTY JOHN OMG. and i didn't know it was a trilogy sokhjgkdfjhcf IT GETS CREEPIER.

it's a thriller...it has magic and mystery, romance and humour. and 1920s glamour.
it's the cat's pyjamas. lol

i knew evie and jericho...something is going on...
as for sam...he's a suspect...
uncle will...omg PROJECT BUFFALO WHAT IS GOING ON

i love memphis he is my favourite.
it was interesting because she wrote about religion a lot and beliefs and well..yes you get crazy fanatics who have cults and are creepy but also normal people who believe in religion. like idk i have faith in God and it makes me sad when people DON'T believe in God but because of religion's history i suppose i understand why...

ah the american dream. what a wonderful illusion. any1 can make it of course. what a beautiful lie. beautiful deception. a nation built on immigrants and yet they hate other people.

anyways so this book is about the diviners who r people with special powers eg being able to read an object or see the future or predict death or heal people.
it's about a murderer come back from the dead.
it's about evil things and the storm is coming...
it's about the 1920s illusion and facade and secrets, lies and promises, deception and bribery.
magic and voodoo and creepy crawlies...well i really wish the museum of creepy crawlies existed lol.
witchcraft is fascinating

anyways i look forward to the sequel but alas will probably only read it in the day BECAUSE NO DOUBT IT WILL TERRIFY ME!!!

LIBBA BRAY IS A WONDERFUL AUTHOR PLEASE READ HER BOOKS.

Happy Reading =D
