SLJ, The slowly revealed lore of the demons coupled with Dee's adventures make for a whirlwind of a page-turner. Snappy dialogue and harrowing action scenes move the twisting plot along and maintain suspense throughout.A must-read for fans of intrigue and superpowered villains. Magic, mystery, and intrigue, paired with Jones's devilish story-telling ability, will bind readers to The Hearts We Sold until the final explosive ending.- Lindsay Cummings, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Zenith and The Murder Complex, Lloyd-Jones deftly weaves several plot strands, using flashbacks to impart background information. This book will steal your heart and break it, and leave you begging for more.Ī completely original story that shatters the boundaries of YA fiction. As something like love grows between them amid an otherworldly threat, Dee begins to wonder: Can she give James her heart when it's no longer hers to give? In The Hearts We Sold, demons can be outwitted, hearts can be reclaimed, monsters can be fought, and love isn't impossible. Reality is turned on its head, and Dee has only her fellow "heartless," the charming but secretive James Lancer, to keep her grounded. And what comes after Dee makes her deal is a nightmare far bigger, far more monstrous than anything she ever could have imagined.
The demon who Dee approaches doesn't trade in the usual arms and legs, however.
But this is a world where demons exist, and the demons are there to make deals: one human body part in exchange for one wish come true. Her home life sucks (to put it mildly), and she's about to get booted from her boarding school-the only place she's ever felt free-for lack of funds. An intoxicating blend of fantasy, horror, and romance-a Faustian fable perfect for fans of Holly Black, and Stranger Things.
