Oooo! The Harrowing!

Dark Star by Bethany Frenette.  This was an amusing read. I think, however, that the author bit off more than her audience can chew. We had this interesting Tarot card thing going on with the main character. Fine. We have a superhero mother. Fine. We have parallel dimensions housing demons bent on making everyone miserable just because they are. Hm. Yeah, think there were a few too many pies being sliced here. My favorite parts, by far, were the superhero sections. I just have a weakness for them, I suppose. Loved the main character's friends, but wasn't overly sold on the girl herself. I wasn't constantly annoyed by her or anything; she just won't make my top ten heroines list. 3 out of 5 homemade cookies. Yay for a YA stand-alone novel!
