Blurb:
High school senior, Sofia Black, has had a very hard
life. Since her father's death 7 years ago, she has had to look after
her drug addicted, alcoholic mother. School isn't any better for her
either. The other kids constantly tease, and ridicule her. All she wants
is to get out of her small hometown in Alabama.
When new
student, Jason, shows up, Sofia's world is turned upside down. She
doesn't understand why he wants to befriend her so badly... And, just
when she thinks she can trust him, trouble appears.
Jason's twin
brother, Robbie, moves into town, and things go haywire. Sofia is now
running for her life - and Jason is forced to share hidden secrets with
her. She learns the truth about her father's death, and finds out that
she may not be as "human" as she once thought. She struggles to accept
her fate, while fighting for her life.
Review:
Redheads Are Soulless was a quick and fun read about a girl named Sofia who finds out she isn't quite human. Among dealing with her alcoholic mother, bullies at school, and focusing on graduating, Sofia meets handsome twin brothers Jason and Robbie. Sofia must find out who she really is, who she can trust, and what her destiny holds.
The book was under 100 pages and was well written, which made it an easy read. The storyline was fresh and interesting, but I thought the author could've expanded a lot more on some of the backstory, especially with the different immortals and the war that happened between the different clans. The characters were well rounded and had believable problems. I was able to fully empathize with Sofia's situation at home and especially at school with all the teasing and bullying that she had to endure. Most readers will easily identify with her and the problems she faces throughout the book. The narrative flowed well and was very captivating, but I feel that there was a lot more potential for the story and the characters that would've taken it from great to amazing.
