NA Review: “Darkness Watching” by Emma L. Adams

This was my first NA novel. I’ve never read them, but I loved the concept of a genre where that I, being 25, can relate to these people who are learning about the “Adult” world for the first time.

Just my friggin’ luck.

In the end, you are so disappointed because it didn’t reach that standard you had placed for it.

That was “Miss Peregrine’s” for me. I wanted MIND EXPLOSION. Instead, i got a little piece of paper with ka-plow written on it.
