Description

Compliance is not part of Sloane Gáspár Barzetti’s nature—after all, she is a descendant of the great Romani sorcerer, Django Gáspár. Just like Django, Sloane embodies the magical ingredient the Gáspárs call it—the ability to acquire psychic knowledge without explanation. Knowing things she has no business knowing is normal for Sloane, but just as a Tarot seer predicts, ordinary isn’t in the cards. It is hardwired into the fourteen-year-old Americanized Romani just as it is prevalent in the Gáspár bloodline.

Forced into visitation with her narcissistic father and his controlling girlfriend, team Barzetti aggressively looks for new ways to make Sloane’s life miserable. As their games progress, Sloane begins to experience a new level of the mystical it. Sloane must rise up and understand the force that lies within her. Embracing her prophesied destiny may be catastrophic. The question is, catastrophic for whom?

This was a very different read for me. It was nice to get a story that wasn't all about how you can't trust certain groups. This book was a nice change. It's written with a first person POV and would definitely be a part of the young adult genre. Sloane is the main character and she is trying to figure out things as a 14 year old girl.

The parts dealing with Romani culture were interesting and I enjoyed reading about it. The book overall was very good. I give it a 3.5 star if I could use that rating.

The Romani culture was very interesting to read about. I enjoyed how the 1st person POV allowed us to really get into the mind of the main character, especially since I otherwise would've found a lot of her actions random and unexpected (it's been a while since I've been 14 lol). I enjoyed this a lot! My younger sister did too.
