For three teenagers, dark mystery has always lurked at the corner of the eyes and the edge of sleep. Beautiful Morgan D'Amici wakes in her trailerpark home with dirt and blood under her fingernails. Paintings come alive under Ondine Mason's violet-eyed gaze. Haunted runaway Nix Saint-Michael sees halos of light around people about to die.
At a secret summer rave in the woods, the three teenagers learn of their true, changeling nature and their uncertain, intertwined destinies. Riveting, unflinching, beautiful, Betwixt shows a magic as complex and challenging as any ordinary reality.

REALLY glad to be done with this one. 487 pages and I felt every bit of it. I found the characters to be boring and unlikeable and the fay story confusing and uninteresting. The only reason I kept reading is because 200+ pages in, I figured I'd devoted that much to the book already, I might as well see it through. It took a long time for the book to really get to the "main" part of the story, and to be honest, it wasn't even until the last 150 pages that I even felt engaged in the story.
I took a quick peek at Amazon for this book; looks like others have similar feelings about this book.
