A quick bit from the author's webpage: I can’t weep. I can’t fear. I’ve grown talented at pretending.Elizabeth Caldwell doesn’t feel emotions . . . she sees them. Longing, Shame, and Courage materialize around her classmates. Fury and Resentment appear in her dysfunctional home. They’ve all given up on Elizabeth because she doesn’t succumb to their touch. All, that is, save one—Fear. He’s intrigued by her, as desperate to understand the accident that changed Elizabeth’s life as she is herself.
Elizabeth and Fear both sense that the key to her past is hidden in the dream paintings she hides in the family barn. But a shadowy menace has begun to stalk her, and try as she might, Elizabeth can barely avoid the brutality of her life long enough to uncover the truth about herself. When it matters most, will she be able to rely on Fear to save her?
My Take
I really did not see how the main character could get through the entire book devoid of emotion. I would say the author was successful in moving the story with that in place. Seeing emotions and elements as people was very interesting. I really was pulled into this story. Elizabeth was relatable, which I thought would be tough with an emotionless character.
The story took surprising turns and really kepy you gripped to it. You felt as though you truly knew the characters in the end. And what about that cover, huh?! Pretty awesome! I'm giving this one 4 1/2 emotion filled smaks!! <3
