It’s so lovely, and I’m glad that it is because it made me download the book in the first place.The book starts out with Felix, Alistair, and Loki. Three young boys that have been poisoned by the witch, Margo Bates. Instead of killing them, they were cursed with immortality. From this prologue, I was already connecting with the three of them, and I really felt sad for them. Yes, they were foolish, but they’re not really terrible people. I think love at first sight is possible because I loved these three from just that one scene.Fast-forward to hundreds of years later~ Ada Snow, Bronwen’s grandmother has the gift of foresight. And when she sees that Bronwen would be in grave danger, she sends her away to Felix for protection. But things aren’t so simple because Ada has a lot of secrets that she isn’t willing to tell Bronwen. She merely asked Bronwen to trust her, which of course Bronwen did because Ada was her only family left.There’s a lot of action because of what hunts down Bronwen, and I was definitely scared. It was really powerful, and defeating it was definitely not simple. But I also really wanted to know that everything would be okay. I mean it’s a book so it should be, but of course I need to know exactly what happens. There were so many secrets and mysteries that I just needed to know about! I was just so captivated by the story, and it turned me into an emotional wreck. I got so hung over by this book.I think that Bronwen has erratic behavior, but it didn’t stop me from loving her. There were some times that I didn’t like her because she wouldn’t listen or she would start drawing out conclusions, but I’m not sure if we can blame her considering the situation she was in.My favorite part of the story were definitely the boys. Even though Felix was given most of the attention, I also got to know Alistair and Loki better. I love love love them! (Sorry if I keep on repeating myself) Felix can get cocky and impatient, but he’s also adorable, he’s really sweet, and he likes making people laugh. I guess he can also be considered the leader of the group. Alistair is the eldest of them all, and he’s the silent and perceptive type. Loki is the pudgy kid with a lot of energy. He’s also very sweet and he even considered Bronwen as a sister. They were really great characters. They loved each other dearly, and I think they were lucky enough to live a long life with each other. They just really made me want to cry.**************************************************OVERALL, I LOVE THIS BOOK! I really really really love it even though it badly broke my heart. I just love the three boys, and I feel so sad for them, and I just love them. The story was thrilling and entertaining, and I was surprised so many times along the way. This was just really wonderful, and I’m glad I tried it out even though I first judged it by its cover. It’s as beautiful as it looks. It’s funny. It’s captivating. It’s awesome.
