Unearthly - Cynthia Hand I didn't love Unearthly as much as many other readers on Goodreads. There are things that Hand did very well in this book. I loved the the setting in Wyoming and the concept surrounding the story is very interesting. However, there are some things I just couldn't get past. Most importantly, I felt the plot is very predictable and knew most of the major plot points halfway through the book. Additionally, I just couldn't relate to Clara and wasn't a huge fan of her impending love triangle storyline that is going to take over book 2. Overall, Unearthly has real potential and I love the idea of a young girl discovering her power and what that power means to her and the people she cares for. However, I think that plot line is being overshadowed by the love triangle and that frustrates me. Let's hope I'm wrong.
