While I enjoyed this one, I think the classification of YA may he a bit generous. This book was very dark, very gruesome, and very violent. The concept of using curses to attach your soul to a demon in exchange for power was interesting, as was the way it fit into the world. Accepted, yet not. Concepts of prejudice, hate, and genocide are also a bit above the classification for YA in my opinion. Overall, I'd say the book was really interesting and I was surprised by the revelation of who the killer was. But it's not YA.
