RaveChicago Review of BooksMelissa Albert’s The Children isn’t just something you read. It’s something you breathe. It whispers at the nape of your neck, tugs at a hangnail. And what a thrill it is to be haunted by something like this ... From an eerie start to an astonishing finish, The Children seeps into every pore. You won’t quite know what’s real: our heroes, or how we remembered them being kinder than they ever actually were, and our perception of the art they make.
RaveChicago Review of BooksThis novel will mean something to everyone, and for many it will mean so much it will be hard to look directly at.
