I really enjoyed this novel and give it 5-stars because of the story, the plot and the characters. It's a YA book (book 1 in a trilogy), and has all the excitement and coming of age that you'd expect in a good YA, laced with the fantasy and mystery of what is happening to Tess, Luka, Pete, and more. I was reminded of many themes in this book, like mental health, paranormal, religion, romance, the challenges of being a teenager, & family, and the story itself was very good, easy to read, with believable dialogue and a good ending that I won't spoil. Excellent writing style and I think this was a fantastic YA, coming of age, fantasy novel.
