Thanks to NetGalley and Wednesday Books for an advanced copy of We Can Never Leave by HE Edgmon to review! HE Edgmon is always good for a dark fantasy full of found family. Though, not always the most functional found family (especially in this case). This book is a twisty mystery that will keep you guessing at every turn.

I will say, this might be the oddest book Edgmon has written thus far. The timeline goes back and forth between the present and the future, and it's through this way that we get to know the main five characters. Though five characters is a lot of different POVs, I still think you get a good sense of each one as you move through the plot. They aren't always the most likeable, but they are very engaging.

However, some of the switching does get a bit confusing at times, taking down the story down a notch for me.

This is definitely a great read-a-like for the show Sweet Tooth on Netflix, with weird characters with powers. If you like the kind of story about misfits getting together to solve an unusual mystery, definitely pick this one up!
