Equal parts scary and haunting, Anna Dressed in Blood was a good mix of horror and teenage angst. I loved how vivid and descriptive the imagery was and that the author wasn't one to shy away from gloss over the scary bits. Anna's story was a sad one though I had hoped she had remained scary for a little while longer. When she was scary, it was great, then she just turned into like, I don't know, Casper or something. Naturally, with any YA novel these days, there seems to be a romance between Anna and our protagonist, Cas. I definitely approve of Cas' empathy for Anna but romance? We'll just have to see how that turns out in the sequel. Overall, delightfully refreshing and scary! 3.5 stars and a bump up for the gorgeous cover!
