Why read it?
1 author picked Icarus as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Icarus is a totally different kind of scary read from what I normally pick up, more psychological thriller than actual horror – but don’t let that stop you from reading this amazing book. In Icarus, Stone leads us through a complicated, dark, and forgotten history until we find the place Tess’ present intersects with her half-forgotten past. The ride is thrilling and the conclusion won’t leave you disappointed!
From Caryn's list on YA to scare away a good night’s sleep.
