My rating for this book is a 5. This is THE best book I've ever read. Every aspect of this book is so well thought out. It is really long compared to other books but it did not fail to keep me focused.

These are people who use their powers to kill demons. Bree is then suspicious and she thinks that this society might have something to do with the death of her mother.

Rating: 3.5 My rating for this book is a 3.5 because the book is pretty slow at times. Even though it speeds back up it is enough to kill your mood for reading at times.

Summary: The Kinder Poison is a book about a teenage girl, Zahru. She can talk to animals but does not have any magical powers. She just wanted to see the royal palace but then ended up being a human sacrifice to the gods. She then has to get herself out of this while realizing that she is still powerful, magic or not.
