Quote(s)

1.    Since she won’t learn sign language and won’t lip-read, it means she gets to do whatever she wants, and no one can tell her no.

2.    And Sarabeth was now a young woman with fiery red hair and pale skin and yellow eyes, the same yellow cat eyes that had haunted Evan since he’d arrived.

WOW! I didn’t expect that!

 

Reading Experience

I hate bullying! If you’re not going to take care of your children, please do not give birth to one!

I didn’t really expect Sarabeth to be a witch. I’m always focusing on the monster blood and expect it to belong with alien. LOL.
