Book Description:

"ARSON is the first book in a Young Adult Paranormal series. Book two, ASHES, is also available now.

ARSON GABLE FEELS LIKE A FREAK. HE CAN CREATE FIRE. HE NEVER ASKED FOR IT. HE NEVER WANTED IT. BUT HE CAN'T SHUT IT OFF.

Before now, three things were true: he both loved and despised his grandmother; his life was going nowhere; and he was alone. But when a strange girl--who feels more normal behind a mask than inside her own skin--moves in next door, Arson hopes to find something he's never had: purpose. After years of living in fear, he will be forced to confront his haunting past and embrace the unknown as he walks the fine line between boy and monster. Edgy, realistic, and breathtaking, Arson, the chilling chronicle of an isolated teenager with unimaginable ability, is set to ignite the hearts and minds of a new generation"

I had a hard time getting into ARSON, the characters were really interesting but I had a hard time connecting to the story. I felt that many important details were missing in this book, leaving a lot of mysteries open. ARSON was an unusual read, I enjoyed the concept, but the execution was a bit off. That being said, I would read the sequel and more from the author. I think Estevan Vega has the potential to become an excellent writer.

3 out of 5 stars
