This is a nice start to a YA series! The characters were interesting and seemed real, with real lives and real thoughts. Very nice dialogue, and while it was a bit slow in parts it was a very good read.

So I honestly don't remember what drew me in besides the cover and sometimes that works for me, unfortunately this time it didn't. I can't give you a full review of reasons either it was simply that the story did not excite me enough to get past one chapter.

There were aspects of this book that I really liked and others that brought the score down for me. The concept is different and interesting. I love mythology overall but I haven’t read a lot of New Age mythology that A Quarrel Called is based around. New age can be kind of hit or miss for me, I think that the author did a good job of incorporating aspects of new age and the abilities of the kids were interesting and well fleshed out, but it wasn’t my favorite to read.

The four different perspectives through me off, I think it was a little too much, and I felt like I wasn't able to connect to all of the characters because of so many different perspectives. I did enjoy the interactions between the four friends and their conversations, and the action was well paced.

While it wasn't a favorite for me, I do think that the story was overall well written and the concept is intriguing. I think that if new age mythology is interesting to the reader that they would really enjoy this book, it just isn’t for me.
