About the Author

Holly Schindler is the author of Playing Hurt and the critically acclaimed A Blue So Dark. She grew up with two cats she adored; one of them started out life as a feral cat. Although she's a lifelong resident of Missouri (and swears her hometown has the prettiest skies around), she has never personally visited Peculiar . . . but the name of the town makes her imagination run wild.

Reviews

"With back-to-back scenes of exquisitely imagined...real horror, Schindler's third YA novel hearkens to the uncompromising demands of her debut, A Blue So Dark...This time, the focus is on women's voices and the consequences they suffer for speaking...A story about reclaiming and healing."--Publishers Weekly (starred review)
