Pine by Francine Toon
5.0

I didn't really know what to expect from this book, but.. Wow.

Written mainly from the perspective of Lauren, a 10 year old who lives with her father in the Highlands, it hooked me in from the beginning. The addition of the supernatural undertones, alongside some of the best descriptions of the Highland land - the trees, air, and the people within - it was superb but distinctly unsettling.

Its still making the hairs on the back of my neck stand up even though I've finished reading.
