My Review:
I truly loved the premise of this book. I did enter it a bit sceptical I will say has I have yet to find a book that truly scared me while reading it. Now make no mistake Drawing Down the Moon may not leave you screaming and jumping at things that go bump in the night it will however leave you wondering if you had this kind of power would you let it get out of hand. It plays mind games with you daring you to answer the question when is to much to much and how far is over the line? As Ronan and her group start out innocently enough it quickly takes a wrong turn and soon people are paying for crimes that don't deserve the punishment they receive. That's when Ronan decides things have gone to far and are out of hand she wants out and she wants her friends to go with her. Is Lyda's hold to tight and how will she make them pay for leaving. Though I did not have nightmares from this story it did leave me with a spine tingling chill think about how far one would go with this power.
I enjoyed the book and look forward to reading more by Steven Climer.
5/5
