Darkness becomes Her by Kelly Keaton 273 pages
Yet another paranormal book for teens. However, this is set in New Orleans, postapocalyptic New Orleans, that is. After a natural disaster destroys New Orleans, nine prominent families purchase the territory from the federal government. Rumors fly about supernatural beings. Ari was abandoned by her mom shorting after the disaster. Her mother enters a sanitorium where she later dies. Grown up (17 yr old) Ari is out to learn the truth about her heritage. She has questions, like what's with her white hair and teal eyes? Could she be cursed???? The author seems to be trying to blend popular series like Twilight and Lightning Thief. It didn't really work for me.
