Review: The Killing Woods
Gaby Meares
This is definitely not for younger readers. It deals with some very dark themes including Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, drug and alcohol abuse and some pretty challenging ideas about teenage sexuality. I did find it a real page turner, a who dunnit in the true sense of the term. I think Lucy Christopher’s teenage characters are real, full of confusion, and voicing those doubts and questions that we all remember from that time of our lives - they are very honest characters.
