First things first, this cover is BEAUTIFUL. It is worth reading for that reason alone.

But the story? Not great. I really wanted to love this, but I just didn't. There were aspects that were good: the characters were interesting and the premise of the supernatural was what drew me to the book in the first place, but it just didn't deliver. There was an occasional mention of ghosts and spirits throughout, but they don't really contribute anything to the story, and the outcome would have been just the same if they hadn't been included at all. There were also a lot of questions that were left unanswered. The way it ends leads me to think that it has been left open for a second book, which may well explain why somethings were left unexplained, but I can't say I'll be rushing to pick it up.
