I think that anyone who likes ghosts and creepy thriller dramas would enjoy this one. I enjoyed the side characters a lot, mainly his friends, and would love to see a sequel to this with more exploration into the history of his family to show more of his gifts.
The book’s pace was very fast and I found myself being carried along with it. The book definitely deals with some dark themes and goes into some heavy topics so be prepared for that if you pick this one up. It goes a little bit in but barely dips the toes into what could have given us readers so much more information and then it would have us feeling a lot more for Jake and what he is going through. We see how Jake deals with it but don’t really get to learn more about it or why he can see it and others can’t. My one big thing is that I wish this ghost world was expanded on some more.
It was a lot of fun to explore the spooky world that was Jake’s life and see what he had to deal with day to day having to see the ghost world at the same time as the real one. High school soon becomes a survival game–one Jake is not sure he’s going to win. Suddenly, everything Jake knows about ghosts and the rules to life itself go out the window as Sawyer begins haunting him and bodies turn up in his neighborhood. Now a powerful, vengeful ghost, he has plans for his afterlife–plans that include Jake. A troubled teen who shot and killed six kids at a local high school last year before taking his own life. Stuck in their death loops as they relive their deaths over and over again, they don’t interact often with people. In fact he sees the dead around him all the time.
It’s hard enough fitting in but to make matters worse and definitely more complicated, Jake can see the dead. Clair Prep, one of the others being his infinitely more popular older brother. Synopsis: Jake Livingston is one of the only Black kids at St.
