Week 2 Review: Bone Crier's Moon

From Goodreads:
Bone Criers have a sacred duty. They alone can keep the dead from preying on the living. But their power to ferry the spirits of the dead into goddess Elara's Night Heavens or Tyrus's Underworld comes from sacrifice. The gods demand a promise of dedication. And that promise comes at the cost of the Bone Criers' one true love.

Ailesse has been prepared since birth to become the matriarch of the Bone Criers, a mysterious famille of women who use strengths drawn from animal bones to ferry dead souls. But first she must complete her rite of passage and kill the boy she's also destined to love.

Bastien's father was slain by a Bone Crier and he's been seeking revenge ever since. Yet when he finally captures one, his vengeance will have to wait. Ailesse's ritual has begun and now their fates are entwined—in life and in death.

Sabine has never had the stomach for the Bone Criers' work. But when her best friend Ailesse is taken captive, Sabine will do whatever it takes to save her, even if it means defying their traditions—and their matriarch—to break the bond between Ailesse and Bastien. Before they all die.

My first review of Bone Crier's Moon
My Review:
I really enjoyed reading this book again! I loved it the first time, but it was so long since I first read it, that I couldn't go straight into book 2, I had to come back and reread it! It's such an entertaining story, and I had a blast reading it!

Going in, I did kinda remember the twist about the bone criers and which boy was the one attracted by which bone crier's song. I didn't quite remember how it all played out, but I knew things weren't what they seemed so I kept that in the back of my mind as events unfolded. 

Loved reading this book and I can't wait to continue on and finish this series!
