OK. So while the storm blew spitty snow and our electricity was out for 12 hours last night, I
had to finish this book. By flashlight. It was that good. I knew it would be. Libba Bray is a fabulous writer. After her book,
Beauty Queens, I about had a heart attack from laughing.
The Diviners took her knack for witty dialogue and wrapped it in a 1920's bow. Memphis, a numbers runner in Harlem, hides a dark secret. Evie, who aspires to a real flapper girl, can tell something about you if she touches something you own. Theta is running from a dark past. Their lives converge in New York City. And something is coming. Something dark and old and sinister.
Bad news: it's the start of a series, which means even after the 578-page first book it still leaves a whole lot of questions unanswered
Good news: it's the start of a series! You want more (NOW!)
