Goodreads Synopsis:

Homecoming

Shiva's aunt has come to the Outside to bring her home, with several soldiers in tow. Alarmed at this show of force, Teacher tries to protect Shiva, but to no avail. Meanwhile, chaos threatens to engulf the small hamlet on the Inside. Where does Shiva truly belong?

Review:

Shiva's aunt has come, only nothing is as it seems, really.
This volume really upped the creepy factor. During most of this volume, I was wary and cautious and I didn't trust anything. Everything felt like a lie or a trick and I was scared for Shiva. She's just a sweet little girl, and all the adults are being terrible.
Unsurprisingly, this only leads to more devastation, and now Shiva is starting to think that it might be her fault, that she's causing more harm. It's awful.
Meeting her aunt opens new information, though, as it looks like there might be more to Shiva's story, and her significance with the curse, than we already thought there was.
I'm entranced with this series. I'm intrigued and purely enjoying it, and will be getting the next one very soon.
