Publisher Description
An unusual power. A dead body. Nowhere to turn.
By the time she gets to the Academy for Peculiars, Sophie Harper has already killed a man. The superhuman strength she was born with and abandoned because of means she's a peculiar, but her unique gift still alienates her from her peculiar peers because of its rarity.
As she settles into her new home, she struggles to catch up with schoolwork, and starts falling for her infuriating trainer, a rugged shifter named Will, despite the fact that a relationship between them is forbidden.
Sophie should be focused on fitting in, but she can't change that she's different, even among peculiars. So when she finds out there's one other person with her same preternatural gift, she yearns to learn more about him. Only problem is, he's someone everyone refuses to discuss.
Especially with her.

Customer Reviews
Great start
An interesting and enjoyable new take on the supernatural. I liked that we saw events through a couple of perspectives/narrators. A couple of times the teen angst was a bit much but overall a very good read. Definitely interested in seeing what book 2 has in store.

Finding acceptance
An intriguing story about Sophie and her abilities. From living on her own to learning to deal with a society of people that share similar peculiarities and the new challenges it presents. As a result, she has to learn to control her emotions and the physical manifestations from this behavior.
Witty and relatable within this genre. While I am not a particular fan of this type of book, I did find it enjoyable and entertaining.
