Scars are often hidden as best forgotten reminders of the past. They cover passages of pain until the faded lines become pushed back into a dark corner of a your world where things seem safer behind a closed door.
Yet sometimes a closed door can be opened by fate's hand.
Looking for Dei was an intriguing urban fantasy that delves into the borders of high fantasy. There was a great build up towards establishing this world's belief system and how it tied into the creation of the character's backbones to fulfill ancient prophecies. This read is definitely for those who enjoyed Children of Blood and Bone by Tomi Adeyemi.

Fifteen-year-old Nara Dall has never liked secrets. Yet it seems that her life has been filled with them, from the ugly scar on her back to the strange powers she possesses. Her mysterious father refuses to say anything about her origins, and soon, she and her best friend must attend the announcement ceremony, in which youths are tested for a magical gift.
A gifted youth has not been announced in the poor village of Dimmitt for decades. When Nara uncovers the reason, she uses her own powers to make things right. The decision sets her on a path of danger, discovery, and a search for the divine. In the process, she learns the truth about herself and uncovers the biggest secret of all: the power of broken people.
