I was so excited to find a paranormal book, esp. one with such high ratings. I am not finished with the book yet but am forcing myself to because I spent money on it. While it has an awesome premise and some great spooky scenes that gave me goosebumps, it reads like a play. The sentances are awkward and abrupt(I just read four sentances in a row that start with "she") and use a lot of present tense where past tense is needed making it seem like a plays directions. For example, "She puts the plate on the table" or "she stares at the mirror"(these sentances aren't in the book as far as I know, just an example. It's just plain difficult to read which is a shame. However, if you are looking for some spooky scenes, disturbing scenes etc. then this book is for you. A few of the scenes gave me goosebumps, as I already said. The only reason I gave the book two stars was that it was difficult for me to read dues to the sentances structure and the use, or lack thereof, of the words. I, very badly, wanted to like this book.
