As a parent, I found the book interesting and thought-provoking, but I did not allow my 7 year old to finish it! Don't assume that advanced reading skills make the 7-10 year old set ready for this one, even though Ms. Reid-Banks other books are appropriate. It might be an entertaining point  of discussion with a child 12 or older, but it's too dark for younger ones,  unless you're ready to talk about true evil, adult motivations,  supernatural forces, and fratricide!
