The descriptions in this book were wonderful and they kept me reading. The suspense builds really well. The Twisted Tree is menacing and I can imagine that it would be. Almost as soon as she steps foot on the island, the creepiness begins and it just builds and builds until the climax. I was reading this in bed in the dark and I was getting a little creeped out and paranoid. I love books that make me feel that way. The creepiness had me on edge and I loved it. There were shadows that moved, light flickering, fog, faces that appear and disappear and the feeling that you are being watched.
I loved the links to Norse Mythology in this book for example Odin, Hel, Yggsdrasil and the Norns. I enjoyed how the mythology played into the story and how it links to her family.
I felt her relationship with Stig was a little fast and I didn't really think it was needed.
