![]() ![]() Sofia, who narrates the novel, is struggling between following along with the exorcism and helping Brooklyn escape. The general concept of this book was something I was really into. I haven’t been in high school for a long time- but is this what they do now? Those crazy kids. Now here’s the twist, Riley believes that the Brooklyn is possessed by a demon and ropes Sofis along with her other minions into kidnapping Brooklyn and performing an exorcism on her. ![]() She befriends a loner (Brooklyn) but then is swept off her feet by a clique of popular girls (led by the queen bee, Riley). A new girl, Sofia (who has a bit of a dark past), has moved to a new school. The novel opens with the cliché of all clichés. It was marketed as “Mean Girls meets the Exorcist”. However, when I came across The Merciless by Danielle Vega (the pseudonym for Danielle Rollins), I decided I had to give this one a read. ![]() I usually jump on the teen bandwagon when there is a lot of hype surrounding it and I need to see what the fuss is about (Enter, The Hunger Games). I don’t read a whole lot of Young Adult Literature. ![]()
