With Fire in Their Blood | Kat Delacorte

2 posts | 2 read | 2 to read

When sixteen-year-old Lilly arrives in Castello, she isn't impressed.
A secluded town in the Italian mountains is not where she saw her last years of high school playing out.
Divided for generations by a brutal clan-family war, the two halves of Castello are kept from destroying each other by the mysterious General, a leader determined to maintain order and 'purity'. . . whatever the cost.
Lilly falls in with the rebellious Liza, brooding Nico and sensitive Christian, and sparks begin to fly. But in a city where love can lead to ruin, Lilly isn't sure she can trust anyone -- not even herself.
And then she accidentally breaks Castello's most important rule: when the General's men come to test your blood, you'd better not be anything more than human...

With Fire in Their Blood | Kat Delacorte

so-so

16yo Lilly is dragged off to the ancient medieval walled town of Castello in Italy, leaving behind her rural Maine childhood. Lilly is even less impressed when she gets there to find no internet, wi-fi and a town that seems to be set back 20years. And then there's her really weird first day at school.

All the kids believe in magic. Weird, huh? And it's banned. Not just banned but, well bad things happen to anyone found with magic blood...

Bibliomania 2. The town is divided by ruling clans, like something out of the dark ages. And something odd is going on with Lilly's dad. There are some interesting characters and I was gripped at the beginning; also some hints at bi and queer representation was good but I did get annoyed with the plot in the last 3rd of the book and it's left unclear as to whether or not a sequel is planned. #YAFiction 2y
