Sixteen-year-old Yara Silva discovers on her first day of boarding school that, while she might prefer a normal teenage life, she can, like the other women in her family, see ghosts and when she rushes in to rescue a fellow student attacked by a dark mist, she finds herself entrenched in a 60-year-old curse that haunts the school.

There was nothing really wrong with the story here... wait a minute, lemme back up here.

So, as I was reading this book, I saw first some formatting errors. There was a widow line, there was an ellipsis that looked like this: 
stuff is being said..
. more stuff gets said
blah blah blah

Those things made the book look a little unprofessional. then I started noticing some grammatical errors. Mostly improper use a of commas and stuff like that. But these things kind of made me annoyed. So when I got to the point in the book where stuff just turned downright confusing and nonsensical, I was already somewhat annoyed.

Now, as I said, the story wasn't really bad... there was just this kind of sudden plot twist that was making NO sense. If I hadn't already been annoyed, I probably would've continued on. And I might one day pick up this book again and read it through. just not right now. You know what they say, so many books to read, only some much time in our lives. 

Right now, I'm in my prime. My mind is sharp, my body needs more exercise then I give it, I'm just in school, don't really have a job. This is the point in my life, where I'll probably be getting the most reading done. 

There are some books, like classics like Dracula, stuff like LoTR, Game of Thrones and such like, really THICK and DENSE books that I want to read someday. You know when I'm older and bored and boring. Books that I want to read in my lifetime, but not now, not while I'm in my reading prime. So, if I ever do pick this book up again, it will probably be in that era of my life.

I got to page 119
