A Murder of Magpies Sarah Bromley Books

I love reading dark, gothic-esque tales with damaged people. This book captures all of it with lots of action, mystery, & sweet, swoon-worthy moments between two disillusioned teens carrying secrets of their own that threaten to destroy each other and everyone they love.

A Murder of Magpies Sarah Bromley Books Reviews

"Cardinal Rule You never know who's watching, and I promise you someone is always watching"

Well, how do I start this? I guess by saying that I completely fell in love with that cover! I just know that I have to read it. And I am so lucky to be part of this tour and to review A Murder of Magpies.

Vayda and Jonah are twins. Everywhere they go, they can't escape the fact that people find them strange. Well, they kind of are. Both of them has their own mind game that they got from their mother. And as much as they try to fit in and hide their abilities, some people can't help to notice.

I really love the atmosphere in this book. I think I need to read more books with gothic theme because if they are as good as this, I WANT TO READ 'EM. The author really got the intriguing and mysterious vibe. The setting and the characters was fleshed out. I love how every time I get back to reading it, I feel like I am being transported to where Vayda and Jonah is. This story is on dual Pov's. One is from Vayda, which I absolutely adored. There's something about Vayda that is so badass. But she's also so nice and caring. She's a well written character and I can't wait for more of her in the following books. (i don't know yet if there are following books, but I AM HOPING) the other Pov is from Ward's. Oh, this boy confuses me still. I have a feeling that there's more to him. I CAN'T WAIT FOR THAT. And Vayda isn't the only character that I loved, Ward and Jonah are incredible. They have their own characteristic that makes them unique and distinct.

I'm a fan of the authors writing. It bothers me sometimes when the genre of the book doesn't match the way it was written. Well, this is brilliant. The tone, the pacing and like I mentioned above, the atmosphere was perfect.

Reading A Murder of Magpies will really make you think that the author thought everything through. It's haunting, mystifying and not to mention, totally sexy. This book is full of intrigue with dark and rich characters that I can't get enough of. It's hard to believe that this is Sarah's debut novel. We all better watch out for Ms Bromley.
The book cover, simple as it is, has an alluring quality to it, coupled with the interesting title. The solitary bird under the glaring light from the street lamp post, featured on a sepia toned cover with a touch of color only for the title, makes this cover one of the most intriguing book covers I have ever seen. Readers could interpret it in many ways. The font of the title is beautiful. Also, the title is very cleverly formed. It has the word ‘Murder’ in it since there is a murder in the story, but clearly it indicates a group of birds, particularly magpies, which is also a nickname, the protagonist of this story, Vayda goes by!

Vayda Silver is a girl with a lot of power that she herself underestimates. She can read minds, calm people down, feel what others are feeling or even burst overhead lightings when the feelings become too much to handle and the energy rises. Her twin brother, Jonah Silver is the opposite of her. He riles up people and push out his feelings, moving objects by a mere flick of his wrist. He is like fire while Vayda is like ice. Together they are like Ying and Yang, balancing each other. I love their relationship. It is imperfect and that’s why I can relate to it. Their love is unconditional yet they do fight each other at times. Jonah always looks out for Vayda and protects her.

They both, along with their father, Emory Silver are on the run. Their mind games have earned them names like freak, gypsy and witch. So, they keep moving, always looking over their shoulders, afraid they will be recognized by someone from a previous place they have stayed at. Vayda is lonely, scared to commit to someone but that changes when along comes Ward, a damaged boy with a disturbed past of his own, who somehow calms Vayda down and makes her experience peace, which she rarely does otherwise.

The unspoken attraction between Vayda and Ward and then their love story as we move deeper into the story, is very nicely depicted. It’s very sweet. Each chapter is written from either Vayda’s or Ward’s POV. Other important characters in the book are Rain Killian, Vayda’s and Jonah’s godfather, Marty Pifkin and Chloe, who are their classmates and ones who are always looking out to fight Vayda and Jonah and, Sister Tremblay, someone who seemingly exudes hatred towards the Silver family.

Vayda and Jonah’s late mother, Lorna was someone who quite enjoyed the power the mind games gave her over others. But that got her killed. Now, would her family too suffer and perish like her?. You got to read the book to know more!

The author has really created an amazing and powerful world, with her words!. I am in awe of her work. The situations all tie in well. There are certain situations though, which needs a tad more clarity / explanation. That’s the only fault I could find in the book. Otherwise, it’s an engaging read, which will have you craving to read all of it in one go!.
Awesome book kept me guessing the whole time. I can't wait for the next book
When you put a book down and can't stop thinking about it, wondering if/when a sequel is coming, that's a book you want to read. A Murder of Magpies is a twisted tale with strong yet vulnerable characters you'll grow to love. It's a book to savor.
I love reading dark, gothic-esque tales with damaged people. This book captures all of it with lots of action, mystery, & sweet, swoon-worthy moments between two disillusioned teens carrying secrets of their own that threaten to destroy each other and everyone they love.
