''Ballad for a Mad Girl'' is an entertaining foray into several genres, featuring elements of both horror and mystery. This, and the fact it explores Grace's relationship with her friends in a way not dissimilar to a coming of age story, makes it a stellar read for older teens. However, I do wish the ending had been less of an anti-climax.
Anyone who enjoys this book might also like SweetFreak by Sophie McKenzie as, although it is aimed at younger teens, the novel features a similar element of mystery. There's also [[Fish in the Sky by Fridrik Erlings]]. Adults might appreciate [[When We Were Animals by Joshua Gaylord]].
