This is a confused and involved story. I don't think I'm quite the audience for this story and really while I found it interesting it didn't really gel with me. I found the way she ran some words together annoying and while it probably makes reading it out loud good it just came across to me as a bit pretentious.
While this looks like a paranormal story it doesn't quite hit those buttons for me. It came across as more a horror/dark thriller story with some elements of supernatural. Chance Matthews is approached by an albino woman who knows about some of the strange things happening to her in the house her parents own. There is a fossil that shouldn't exist and strangnesses happening.
While it appears to be marketed to the urban fantasy fan it's really for more the horror fan and the fan of stuff like Lovecraft.

Sorry it took me this long to journal it. I somehow missed the bookcrossing label! *facepalm* Thank you!
Chance Matthews is drawn into a battle between angels and monsters because of something in her possession-a fossil of a creature that couldn't possibly have ever existed. But it did. And still does.
