Blood for Blood by Ryan Graudin
4.0

Blood for Blood deserves to be in a category all on its own because it's excellent. The plot blew me away, especially the way it blew past my expectations with every twist and turn (I don't think I've been wrong this many times about what would happen, in quite a while); the characters were so layered, complex, real I felt for and every one of them, even the bad guys to a certain extent. But the single best part of this book in my opinion was the writing. I loved it in Wolf by Wolf, and it only got better from there, so much so that I'll be reading everything else Graudin's written because her prose is breathtaking.
