Kin by Holly Black, Ted Naifeh

Kin (Good Neighbors, #1)

by Holly Black and Ted Naifeh

From the amazing imagination of bestselling author Holly Black, a mysterious and wonderful teen graphic novel masterpiece.

Rue Silver's mother has disappeared . . . and her father has been arrested, suspected of killing her. But it's not as straightforward as that. Because Rue is a faerie, like her mother was. And her father didn't kill her mother -- instead, he broke a promise to Rue's faerie king grandfather, which caused Rue's mother to be flung back to the faerie world. Now Rue must go to save her -- and must also defeat a dark faerie that threatens our very mortal world.

Meh. Kin was all over the place. The story moves with a super weird pacing, and there is no driving force behind the plot. Things just *happen*, and there is a big emotional disconnect between the reader and the main character.
