Two years ago, Brenna did the unthinkable. She witnessed the aftermath of a murder and accused her only true friend--the first boy she ever loved--of being a killer. Now sixteen, Brenna returns to Oklahoma only to discover that Isaac "White Bird" Henry isn't in juvie. The half-breed outcast is in a mental hospital, frozen in time, locked in his mind at the worst moment of his life. And when Brenna touches him, she's pulled into his hellish vision quest, seeing terrifying demons and illusions she doesn't understand. Feeling isolated and alone, she's up against the whole town, targeted by bullying former classmates, a bigoted small town sheriff, and a tribe who refuses to help one of their own. But when Brenna realizes she's as trapped by the past as White Bird is, this time she won't turn her back on him. She's the only one who can free them both. Even if she has to expose her secret--a "gift" she's kept hidden her whole life.

This book didn't go so well for me. Probably because Euchee-n mythology doesn't interest me and Brenna comes across to me as a really apathetical person (or at least in the state of mind). She's just like Oh hey, maybe I'll do this today. Maybe I'll do that. I need to relate with her on an emotional...
For the life of me, I just could not get into In the Arms of Stone Angels. From start to finish, my interest in the story and characters was mild at best - it was easy to put down, and I went days at a time between readings without the urge to pick it back up again. Even after finishing it, In the A...
This young adult novel is darker than most with an intense edge that left me with three unforgettable characters that will be burned in my mind for many moons to come. Written from Brenna's point of view, one quickly becomes involved with her pain and guilt over her decision of calling the police wh...
This ended up being a very emotional read for me. People can be so mean, so judgmental and you really see it in this book. It was a quick read even at over 300 pages because the writing is good. There were times when my heart felt like it was going to break with the wrongness that was occurring and ...
