Trickster’s Girl by Hilari Bell
Summary (from Goodreads): In the year 2098 America isn’t so different from the USA of today. But, in a post-9/11 security-obssessed world, “secured” doesn’t just refer to borders between countries, it also refer to borders between states. Teenagers still think they know everything, but there is no cure for cancer, as Kelsa knows first-hand from watching her father die.
The night Kelsa buries her father, a boy appears. He claims magic is responsible for the health of Earth, but human damage disrupts its flow. The planet is dying.
Kelsa has the power to reverse the damage, but first she must accept that magic exists and see beyond her own pain in order to heal the planet.
My Thoughts: Honestly, my thoughts on this book are few. It wasn’t good; it wasn’t bad. It was kinda … eh. If that makes any sense. The premise is interesting, but the book didn’t grab me. I did think Kelsa was a good character, and I liked that (for once) there wasn’t romance between her and Raven, the unavailable non-human main male character.
Am I glad I read this book? Not really, but I’m not sorry I did, either. Will I read it again? No. At least, I don’t foresee rereading this book.
