Elementary writing; a storyline that goes nowhere; unsympathetic, underdeveloped characters. From the start we are thrown into a confusing world that is supposedly ours with a paranormal twist, but it feels more like a story that belongs on an episode of, like, Charmed, or Buffy. Fans of L. J. Smith, Vivian Vande Velde, and Lois Duncan will no doubt be able to overlook its similar flaws and find the book interesting, but this just wasn't for me.
