Thanks so much to Simon and Schuster and PulseIt for letting me read this amazing book for free!

This book was so great! I absolutely loved the world that it was set in, and the characters made for a really interesting story.


I liked this book more and more as it went on. The beginning was good, but after the Flash I came to like it much more. It was interesting to get to learn what was happening to Evie inside of her head. The visions and dreams were always very intense and exciting. I want to learn more about what Evie's Gran has to do with all of the Arcana. The story was very exciting, and I never wanted to put this down!


Evie changes a LOT throughout the story. In the beginning she's a cheerleader, popular, and very well-liked at her school. But she has secrets. She sees things and has weird dreams. Over the summer she is sent to a "rehab" type place to help her cope with being "crazy". After the Flash, you get to learn how strong she really is. Jackson was really mysterious. He came into the story quickly, but you could tell from the beginning that hewas going to have a large role in the story. Well, I must say that I was a fan of Brandon at first, but I changed over to Jackson pretty quick. Some of the things that he says and does is harsh, but you can tell that it's a tough guy cover up. Deep down he's so sweet and really cares. Mel was the comic relief of the book. She was a good best friend to Evie, and I enjoyed reading about her. Arthur creeps me out. Let me just say that I was very happy with the ending.


Just a warning for those that have difficulty with POV changes and flashbacks, etc: The POV changes a little, but pay attention to the dates before and after the Flash! I got a little confused before I figured out when things were taking place. I liked how it started and ended at Arthurs. It made me really interested in finding out how Evie reached that point in time.


Overall, I loved this book! I want to find out what happens next so badly! I mean, who wouldn't with THAT ending?!
