I think that this book is very well put together, and it kept me on the edge. Also “Darkness before Dawn” kept me thinking. This book was very easy to read and very understandable. I also think that this is a wonderful book for teens to read because they would find similarities with the characters in the book. Before you read “Darkness before Dawn” make sure you read “Tears of a Tiger” to know about the past of Keisha and her friends, after you read “Darkness before Dawn” I recommend you also “Forage by Fire”. Tell me what you think, and I hope that you enjoy!
