B. L. Brunnemer

Hi, I’m Alexis Delaney. I’m your average 17-year-old girl. Except I can see the dead. And talk to the dead and help them move on. So..okay, I’m not your average 17-year-old girl. Right now, the Veil is shut off, and the Way is closed. Which means the dead can’t move on, so, they are camping out on my lawn. I’m trying to open the Way, juggle school and, well, deal with my feelings for two of my best friends. If that isn’t enough, notes have been showing up in my locker since I got back from Christmas vacation. Things are getting creepier as time goes on. He’s actually starting to scare me, to be honest. But with the guys, I’ll be fine. They’ve got my back. No one is crazy enough to take on Zeke. Right?

I never know where the story is headed when reading a work of B.L. Brunnemer, all I actually know is that she never leads the reader in the wrong direction. And the same held true throughout this novel. Once again I was wowed by just how vivid Brunnemer created her story, characters, and everything in between. I fell in love with this series during the first novel, How to Live With the Dead, and have only fallen more deeply with every novel after.
In this novel there is definitely more development between the characters and their relationships. The bonds grew tighter as I fell more in love with all of Lexie's best guys. How could any normal person choose between Miles and Zeke and Ash and Ethan and Isaac and even some other guys outside the main group. I mean, we all kind of want a friend like Jake right? But I mean, these characters were crafted so well that even with all of their differences, I still want her to end with every single one of them. I love their relationships and bonds, and how each action they take is for the best of the group and each other. I can't help get caught up in this series because these characters are so amazing and I love how the author created their stories to compliment each other and create a character that best suites Lexie and her past.
You really can't go wrong with this series because every moment was crafted to surprise the reader and lead the story in a direction that's unexpected and yet better than I could have ever imagined. I am completely obsessed with this series and I have no idea what I'm going to do while waiting for the next novel to be released. This series has seriously affected how I see and read other novels and trying to find one that matches the mastery of this one and hits all of those key points will definitely be a challenge!
So here's hoping that the next book magically releases within the next 24 hours!! <3 <3
