Book Review: The Girl in the Storm
The Girl in the Storm by Christopher Stanfield is a YA fantasy about seventeen-year-old Genevieve Reidell, who learns of her destiny from an angel after a school shooting.
What I really loved about Stanfield’s story was his writing. There were times where he pulled me into a setting just by his words alone. I really loved this.
I’m not a big lover of YA or supernatural angel/demon books, so this wasn’t my favorite story, but the angels’ interactions reminded me a bit like Supernatural, but I felt like Stanfield’s angels were more angelic or “holy.”
Favorite Quotes:
In those days, hate was always near at hand.
The weight was back again, pressing in on her from every side.
This wasn’t my favorite book, but if you love YA and supernatural themes, then you may really enjoy Stanfield’s book.
During the month of May, Stanfield donated his royalties to the Sandy Hook Promise charity. It’s not too late to help the cause! Visit Sandy Hook Promise to donate directly.
