Scary and Satisfying submitted by sdunav on June 12, 2015, 5:28pm Very cool paranormal YA story, with two parts - one a story about a young (18 y.o.) author in NYC, the other about her character who survives a terrorist attack in the Dallas-Ft Worth airport and develops the ability to slip into the underworld (or the afterworld?) and see ghosts. Highly recommended for teens and adults (fair amount of violence and creepiness for kids under 13).

I really enjoyed this. The storyline was a little weird but interesting and creative. Parts of it reminded me of Midnighters.
I love the structure of alternating chapters that are related. It probably didn't need to be 600 pages to cover everything but it still went by pretty fast.
loved it submitted by Shahed on June 23, 2018, 11:32pm it's a really good book, that leaves u on ur feet after every chapter. Has so much emotion.
