About The Gathering Darkness:

They say “third time’s the charm,” and for sixteen-year-old Brooke Day, they had better be right. She’s been here before, twice in fact, and so has the darkness awaiting her return.

When Brooke is forced to leave Boston for the village of Deadwich, she thinks her life is over. New friends become estranged—downright evil. But worse, recurring nightmares become reality.

Enter Marcus Knight; he’s popular, hot, and the only person Brooke can trust.

Not to mention, they’ve shared the same nightmares.

With the discovery of an ancient Celtic amulet, Brooke and Marcus unravel the secrets ofher past, revealing the path to her future.

As the equinox approaches, darkness and light merge for the first time in a century. Soul-mates reunite. Magic awakens.

My REVEIW MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS:

The Gathering Darkness is another story filled with all the elements I enjoy…a little love, mystery, conflict, and magic. It was easy to picture Deadwitch, a great contrast to Brooke’s Boston, and the Ravenwyck Inn, the old crone Maggie and all. It was a bit hard to believe the rapid intensity of the connection between Marcus and Brooke at first but thankfully their story unfolds just as rapidly and I got it. The amulet and tattoo where nice additions to the plot. The cast of characters had a nice range and I appreciated all of their roles in the outcome of the story. It ended very neatly and I was left with no questions but also wouldn’t mind hearing more about these guys and gals.

I highly recommend The Gathering Darnkness to all YA readers, especially those with a taste for magic, mystery and young love.

Happy Reading!
