the books its self just wasn't that good and honestly it was kinda a waste of time. But at least it will look good on my shelf. I rate this book a 3/5

The boys name, I already forgot, but his actions didn't add up. He had a heart attack after seeing a ghost he's seen before multiple times? it didn't make sense. And the sister, she was like a creepy angel and all of a sudden she's some demon child with an old soul. And how the author just got rid of her at the end to? it didn't make sense. So many plot holes.

Now that I've finished the book I realized that I should not ignore the comments on books. I saw many people say the book was boring and saw the low reviews that were given. but I had hope, mostly because I thought the cover was cool and it sounded good. the book its self had some good moments but most of the time it was straight yapping. So many confusing plots holes. the books ending felt really disappointing.

okay. so those four pages just amped the action in the book by a lot. It was very much needed. why can't those kids just be normal. Walking around at night TALKING AND HAVING STARE OFFS WITH GHOSTS. like what the helly. and why is miles outside looking INSIDE and what is it that he's looking at?

As I read I’m always halfway lost and confused on what’s going on and confused on what the characters are hiding

So just finished chapter 4 and I really, really trying to like the book but genuinely what was the point of that chapter other then weird stare off they had at the end. I understand the idea of it. And so far it’s good enough but all that happens is they yap and then there’s a ghost encounter. And repeat.
