![]() This is a fast moving book, but it suffered from too many elements that never seemed fully developed. Shadow Hills is a lengthy book, but it never once felt that way. ![]() Add to that the graveyard Phe happened to stumble upon behind the school, and you have a paranormal adventure with a hefty dose of mystery to unravel about the school, Phe, and her sister’s death. Oh, and this guy, Zach, is able to know her thoughts, feel her energy, and make weird things happen with electromagnetism. She’s having the dreams more and more, and in addition, she’s been called Rebeckah by a local shop owner who is convinced she is actually someone else from the 1700s. When Phe gets to Devenish Prep, weird things start happening. But because of the recent death of her sister, Phe’s parents aren’t too argumentative when she asks to enroll in the school. ![]() Like her sister, Phe is drawn to Devenish Prep School in Shadow Hills, Massachusetts - quite a distance away from her home in Los Angeles. Persephone (“Phe”) Archer lost her sister not too long ago from mysterious circumstances, and as if that weren’t bad enough, Phe has suffered from a series of horrifying dreams in a graveyard, where a mysterious man has stepped in to play a significant part. For me, Shadow Hills by Anastasia Hopcus falls on the “does not” side of that equation. ![]() ![]() Sometimes, a book clicks with you, and other times, it just doesn’t. ![]()
