Don't be fooled by this book. Everything about it is horrible, from the characters to the romance to the world building and to the plot. I just want to sit down and skitz on top of it.

Characters- Indecisive heroine, pansy hero
Romance- Icky Instalove
World building- If you love living on a cemetery then this is the book for you.
Plot- Plenty of hide and seek, holes and lacked any cohesion to make any sense.

Beware the hype, readers!
