The Sweetest Dark by Shana Abe

" I was found by a tinker at the age of ten. I had no memory of what happened to me until that point. I knew I was never normal, no matter how much I wished it. I mean who hears voices in a house that is completely and utterly quiet.? I never knew my name. I was given one."
 
The Sweetest Dark (The Sweetest Dark, #1)***
The first think that got my attention was the cover. The smoke just seeps from the dress, almost like a fog. As you open the pages you are taken to a world full of mystery and magic. Are you sure of what you are seeing is real or is it something of your imagination?

Meet Lora Jones. To the girls at Iverson Academy, she is a charity case, someone who is coming to the school on a scholarship. She is an outsider; someone who does not fit in. It seems that no one understands her. It is this way until she meets the ground keeper's nephew Jesse. To the girls at the Academy he keeps to himself; doesn't talk much. However he is keeping his eye on Lora. They talk every once in while. Everything seems to be going fine. Then something happens. Lora never knew how to play the piano. Suddenly she plays the great arts. People are applauding. Is it my imagination or is Jesse putting a spell on her? Only one way to find out! This was a great read! I can't wait to read the sequel!
