“Castigate My Sin’s”

Elicia Clegg gradually moves the reader into a murder mystery then makes a huge left and takes you on a completely different path. There are so many twists and turns, you will never be bored reading this book.

“Castigate My Sin’s” is a dark tale about lies and deception.  The book follows five troubled teenagers    Beth, Michael, Christopher, Leigh and Suzy who are dealing with very complicated issues. The characters are not what they seem, which is very true about most people. Clegg has conjured up well rounded, likeable, relatable and believable characters.

 The only issue I had with this book was the point of view that the author chose to tell the story. The story is told through the eyes of the five troubled teens, but the reader also gets insights to what their parents are thinking and feeling.  Even though the author delivers important information by the adult characters, I would rather the author just told the story through her main characters. They were so well developed and interesting that the focus should have stayed on them. 

The author’s descriptions are so vivid; you could picture the scene perfectly in your head. Warning: for those that do not like a lot of violence, there are a few scenes that are very graphic and disturbing.

This is my first young adult review on this blog. I love young adult fiction and was delighted when author Elicia Clegg contacted me for a review.  I never expected to go through a roller-coaster of emotions and so many twists and turns in one book.  I would recommend this for an adult audience.
