Rather interesting, and sort of spooky.

I think this book started off a little slowly, but after that, the action just blew past me. I thought it was a very good book, and it was very original for the author to incorperate the vanished twin syndrome and Wing coming back.

Awesome!

This book was really interesting. I loved Dove's name and "multiple personality. It kept me on the edge of my seat, wondering how she would deal with her twin sister's spirit living in her head.

Really creepy, I loved it.

Wow this is a book that really makes you take a closer look at those strange things you buy just 'cause. I couldn't stop reading it.
