I loved every bit of this book. Signe Farrow has lived what she thinks of as a cursed life - her parents died when she was a baby, and her guardians her whole life (watching over her until she comes of age and inherits her fortune) meet unpleasant ends.. and on top of that, Signe can see spirits, and death incarnate.
When she comes to live with cousins, she is determined to not let fate repeat itself.. her cousin is at death's door and she vows to save her.
This is a perfect book to kick off spooky season (which starts in September for me, lol). The writing was awesome,  the mystery was compelling, and the narration was fantastic. Absolutely loved it and looking forward to the rest of the series! (very minor spice)

I went into this book with high hopes, as many of my mutuals on tiktok LOVED this. I gave it a solid 3.5 stars, I’ll definitely pick up the second book, but I just wanted more from this book.
I didn’t see the final twist coming, but I was able to pinpoint many others throughout the book, and the main love interest in this book did leave me a little uncomfortable.
I just felt like this book could maybe have been shorter ?
