"To me, you are a song to a soul that has never known music. Light to someone who has only seen the darkness."

A very beautifully written story with incredibly imagery that will keep you spooked throughout. Very similar in imagery and plot to The Secret Garden so if you are a fan of that, definitely check this out.

The plot is amazing, such a fascinating concept involving death of all people but the biggest issue is that its very very boring. My 3 star rating is generous as I almost dnfd the book at 68% because I didn't feel I could continue but I'm glad I did as the ending was interesting.

There is a cliffhanger ending but it is also a wrapped up mystery so I'm satisfied and intrigued for the next one despite my dislike for a lot of this book.

If you like slow placed books then this is a great one with a fun mystery and a very unique protagonist and love interest.
