review 1: I was lucky enough to get this book before publication and I was NERVOUS to read it. I was worried, because Kat is my friend, and, well... what if I hated it? But I needn't have feared! Blackfin Sky is a masterpiece and I loved every second of it. My highest praise is that I HAD NO IDEA WHAT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN, but also, that it is unlike every other YA book I have ever read. Sky is a compelling character with an intriguing story (that scene with her in the grave... I still shudder) and each and every character around her felt fully developed and I struggled to let go of them once it was over (I'm rooting for a sequel... come on Kat). Blackfin was a town I didn't want to (and probably couldn't) leave, and the magical elements of the novel were superbly written. I love thi... mores book so much. I was guessing right up until the end and then thinking about it after it finished. It gave me chills and kept me solidly entertained and tense the whole time! :D
review 2: Whoa, what a roller coaster ride! Blackfin Sky was an absolutely enthralling read. The town of Blackfin is a brilliant character in its own right, full of quirks and mysteries, and the story just piles twist upon twist and revelation upon revelation. Original, unpredictable, spooky, fast - paced and deliciously imaginative. Highly recommended if you're hankering after a refreshingly different kind of YA. less

Definitely a different story. Very captivating, spooky at times, but overall a great read.

A tangled mystery in an atmospheric setting. A real page-turner!
