Jenakie by P.J. WhitmoreMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
~~Spoiler Alert~~
Jenakie is a little short, but a lot of drama and mystery is packed into it. It starts of smack dab in the middle of a horror story. Mass death in the depths of the earth as a cave exploring expedition gone very wrong. Darianne (the main character that narrates much of the book) is a she-Doogie Howser (who names their kid Doogie?)who has felt compelled all her life to heal the sick, mend the wounded and all that jazz. But she has the people skills of our lovably but awkward Sheldon Cooper. Seems like a pretty 'normal' book so far...besides the spelunking mishap, right?
Early on in the book the 'normal people stuff' ends and the magic begins. Darianne comes from a world of science but alone in the dark she finds magic, monsters and a strange people with odd ways. But, most importantly she finds herself and eventually discovers that it was her destiny to delve into the deep unknown.
The book is action packed from beginning to end and full of mysterious foreshadowing for the next book in the series. I would say that Jenakie is the perfect book for anyone who enjoys action and emotionally charged drama. All I can say is, read the sample and make up your own mind.
