Book Review: The Replacement

Book: The Replacements
Author: Brenna Yovanoff
Stars: 5 out of 5

It took me two tries to get the book and only a week to finish it. This book was very confusing in the beginning because it starts by talking about things that i never heard off. Like when you start listening in the middle of a conversation - your very confused. But anyways the main character was pretty good, a very likable person.
They story takes place in Gentry where things happen but people don't like to talk about it. Every seven years a baby it stolen to sacrifice and a replacement is given, which normally dies after a couple months because it is not used to the life of a up worlder. These replacements are like the devils creatures - ugly and beautiful all at once, but creepy as well. The story starts off with our main character Mackie Doyle and he is at the verge of death because he was a replacement and all replacements weakness is steel and iron. To help him survive you gets the help from the House of Mayhem which he never knew existed. Through them he discovers another world and tries to figure out which world he really belongs too.
