I love the
way Kade is able to write on paranormal topics, yet make it all so realistic. She
stretches her stories just enough without going overboard. I enjoy how she adds
little bits of humor (and makes fun of cheerleaders) in this story and even has
the characters “talk” to the readers. I love the connection between Will, the
teen who speaks to ghosts, and Alona, the ghost. I would have liked to have
seen more of Joonie (maybe the next book?), but overall the characters were
well developed. I felt the book ended with closure and could be a stand-alone
novel. I wonder if she knew it was going to be a trilogy when beginning to
write it. I will be reading the rest
soon, so stay tuned. This book is great
for teens into paranormal love stories.
