This book deserves a lot more than just five stars! I saw it on the shelf in Barnes and Noble and literally COULD NOT walk away from it! I picked up, put it down, tried to leave, only to pick it up again and again. Finally I decided to go ahead and buy it, and I do not regret it at all. It was impossible for me to put it down, so I finished reading it in a record amount of time. Very good characters, and the amount of detail is impressive! The dream/ghost world was incredibly well-described and haunting in more ways than one. The ending is wonderful and was unexpected (at least to me). A personal favorite I recommend wholeheartedly and will definitely read again!
