I feel like I became very close with each of the characters in this book. Tragedy strikes the small town of Stone Temple, and the whole town is turned upside down. You get to see how each person is handling the aftermath, and the revelation of Ava's gift. The various perspectives make for a very interesting story, that is also very touching and thought-provoking. I felt the book was very subtle in that many of the pivotal parts of the story are kind of slipped in, letting the reader react to it and interpret it on their own. I really liked how it was done. Ava never wanted attention, so the subtlety really fits with her. The character development was great! I learned so much about everyone slowly, and with a lot of surprises. You think you know someone until one of the unexpected moments arrives. It really was done extremely well. I don't want to give away too much, but this book is definitely worth reading. It's not full of action-packed excitement, but it is full of those profound words, actions, and thoughts that will have an impact even well after you have finished it. Very moving!
