Dark Guardian

This book had an interesting start. The fact that Judge taking these kids and protecting them ended up being reported to Child Services was an angle you don't see in books often. Most of the time people do things and they just get away with it or talk their way out of trouble.With Grace, I understand her job but unfortunately situations like this aren't always black and white. The fact she never once took what the kids said into consideration really annoyed me.Yes she eventually came around but if your first instinct is to just take the kids without looking into the whole situation then you could do more harm than good. Same with the reverse leaving kids in a situation and not looking into it and doing harm that way. I think Grace's character needed to be more aware of the things going on around her as well get better at reading people as the man she nearly gave the kids over to was a sick sick man and she would have removed them from a place of safety.She had an air of superiority about her that I am glad wasn't there the whole book but I do think this has the potential to be better if some character traits were different.
