findthatbookI know I have this books somewhere, but I'm not sure where so here is what I remember of it...
The main character is a girl and her father has always favored her sister over her because she is prettier. It is revealed throughout the story all the times that he has physically and mentally abused her. So, one day she decides to run away from home on horse and when she gets to the main market area he finds her there and tries to bring her back. She screams and these shadow creatures appear, scaring the horse and killing the dad. She runs away and then gets caught by the authorities for killing him. She is about to be put to death when a famous group of magic users show up and save her then bring her back to their secret hideout to try and teach her how to use her power. I can explain a bit more but that's those are the main parts of it.
EDIT: I have found this book with a little more research. Sorry to bother you all. The book is 'The Young Elites' by Marie Lu
