Shadow Eyes Review

Iris Kohl lives in a world populated by murky shadows that surround, harass, and entice unsuspecting individuals toward evil. But she is the only one who can see them. She’s had this ability to see the shadows, as well as brilliantly glowing light figures, ever since an obscure, tragic incident on her fourteenth birthday three years earlier.

Although she’s learned to cope, the view of her world begins to shift upon the arrival of three mysterious characters. First, a handsome new teacher whose presence scares away shadows; second, a new friend with an awe-inspiring aura; and third, a mysterious and alluring new student whom Iris has a hard time resisting despite already having a boyfriend.

As the shadows invade and terrorize her own life and family, she must ultimately revisit the most horrific event of her life in order to learn her true identity.

Will Iris become the hero she was meant to be?

~ MY REVIEW~

What a fabulous debut novel for Dusty! She is a promising up and coming author and her writing flows wonderfully. Shadow Eyes is a captivating and exciting story fit for any reader.

This book kept me up! The plot and characters were so compelling, I just had to find out what was going to happen. You know a book is well written and all around great if you can't stop reading until you reach the end.

Shadow Eyes is full of mystery and constant guessing. I had a million and one questions buzzing through my head while I was reading, which made it quite enjoyable. 

This book depicts the evil that is at work every day in a unique and thought provoking way. It raises the question; why do people do the things they do?

Iris is a strong and well developed main character, even though she is often plagued with guilt and anxiety about a past she doesn't want to face. I enjoyed watching Iris grow as a person and eventually gain a new perspective on life, both mentally and spiritually. 

Many of the situations she faces are ones teens face everyday. Showing how devastating things like peer pressure can be makes this book easily relatable for young adults.

The messages in this book are important ones and I like reading a book with a strong positive message. I hope other readers will be somewhat enlightened by Dusty's perspectives as well. 

It was good to know that the light is always there for those who choose it.

I loved Kyra's character and Patrick's too. I was really rooting for Peter to not be the bad guy. He was so charming and I felt Iris needed someone to care for her. 

I am definitely looking forward to finding out how Iris handles her growing gift and what the shadows are planning next. I am hoping the sequel isn't too far off! 

I will be recommending Shadow Eyes to anyone looking for a unique and somewhat supernatural book.
