The Diviners by Libba Bray
3.0

3 is my first thought. I didn’t push for 4 stars mainly because it was a bit hard to keep up with all the separate stories and characters, the storyline was slightly confusing and Evie was a bit annoying and too much to take. I did love the 1920s vibe and the creep factor of this story though.

I feel like on the Diviners end if the spectrum, we honestly just scratched the surface which is why I want to pick up the second book to see if it digs deeper into who the other Diviners are, their gifts and what’s coming for them. It took me some time to get used to the wordiness and how that author was drawing the story out, but I finished the whole second half of the book in one evening so that has to mean something right?
