Really enjoyed reading this book although it isn't the type I normally read. Grabs your interest from the start and keeps your attention chapter after chapter. Keeps you wondering what is going to happen next and to whom. Truly a very enjoyable read!

[Matthew Stern · Rating 5 out of 5]

This story provides a suspenseful blend of teenage drama and supernatural visions. Karsyn Alexander wants to be a normal high school student, but is haunted by disturbing visions of death. After a tragedy drives her family to a new town, she tries to keep her visions a secret as she gains friends and falls in love. But when a friend disappears, she may have to risk exposing the truth about herself.

The story builds suspense while going through typical teenage struggles. The familiar rituals of family, home, school, and social life provide a contrast with dangers she sees and experiences. The story comes to an exciting and heartbreaking end while imparting some important lessons. It's an entertaining and relevant story.

I love this book. Being a young adult myself I can relate to the emotions and conflicts with the characters. I am constantly on the road and it’s hard for me to find a book that will keep my interest, this book kept my interest and I felt invested in what was happening with the characters from start to finish! Read this book!
