My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Sykosa by Justin Ordoñez
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Sykosa is like any other teen girl, beautiful, intelligent, and determined to make the most of any situation. Yet she also has secrets. Secrets that, at times, threaten to engulf her. Secrets she detests in keeping. Part of her knows she has no choice in keeping them. Trouble would ensue if she does not, yet she finds it difficult sometimes to hold them close.
Her life hasn’t been that easy, even though people would like to think so. She’s had everything she’s ever wanted, yet her life, sometimes, feels lacking.

It’s her way of not having to deal with what she doesn’t want to deal with. Yet sometimes the little door swings open and those secrets pour out unexpectedly. Read on »
