I wanted so badly to enjoy this book! At the start it seemed interesting and different with the deceased Lily being able to enter her twin brother Bens body but then it went downhill quickly! I found Lily to be selfish and whiny! The book was far longer than it needed to be with 200 pages or more centred around Lily being in Ben’s body and not a lot else. I also found the ending of the book unrealistic in Lily forgiving the perpetrator of her death. I don’t often rate a book this low and I am sad to do it now but I found the characters 2-dimensional, whiny and annoying. I found the storyline never really went anywhere and there was some really weird moments.

I enjoyed the first 100 pages and I do feel like the multiple points of view and the short chapters made it a quick read and one that saw the full damage of a death, however this just wasn’t for me! If you do like a contemporary YA that tackles death and the impact of it though, maybe do give it a try!
