I was pleasantly surprised by this book. Usually, with teenage protagonists you get an angst-ridden overwrought romance which is when I delete the book. Although the obligatory romance does exist, Ms. Edwards does a stellar job of keeping it low key and focusing on the plot and all the characters, not just the lovers.I did know less than a third of the way through what kind of paranormal Charlotte would be and who her romantic interest would be. However, it didn't ruin the book; I just kept urging Charlotte to figure out her identity. I also didn't see the villain's identity coming; that surprised me. It kept me engrossed to the end.
