Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I fell in love with this book and got teary eyed in the first chapter. Actually, I was teary eyed through a lot of this book. It opens up at a funeral where Gemma is burying her mom. She didn't know her mom all that well, besides the fact that she was crazy, and she doesn't know who her dad is. So, Gemma got to full fill so many kid's dreams and grew up in the circus! That's not even the most interesting thing about her; the most interesting thing is, she can see shades (ghost).
The traveling circus that she is living with stays in one place for the first time for months and she has to start regular school for the very first time. She has never stayed in a place long enough to make close friends or fall in love. Her closed friends are two elephants and two acrobats. That all changes when she meets Henry Dmitri and it was love at first sight.
Everything is going great until one day she sees a letter comes for her with her Mother's writing on it and the people that she is closest to hides it from her. She suddenly realizes that almost everyone around her is keeping secrets from her and she stops at nothing to uncover the truth but is it something she really wants to know? Once the secrets are brought to life the action doesn't stop.
When you first look at this book you may think to yourself, "Wow, this is a long story." But once you start reading it and the more you get involved with it you realize it's not long enough especially at the end.
Jennifer knows how to suck the readers in and make them feel part of the story every step of the way. I can't wait for the second one to come out; I am dying to know what happens next. I recommend this to everyone.
