I found this book while scrolling through Pinterest, so it was a "shot in the dark". Much like this book unfolded to be. I thought the mystery itself was very intriguing and I very much enjoyed Carols writing style. In the dedication page it reads:

TO:
All of my English students.
ALL of you.
You're all NUTZ.
I love you.
You're gonna make it.

I thought this dedication page was inspiring to many young authors and creators, as an encouragement to do more and be more.

Carol also gives helpful advice in the end of the book to help you whenever you get writers block, which I sometimes have, but differently in my art projects.

Carol, overall is very insightful.

This was a really god book (like her other books)! I really like the set up and how the reader doesn't really know what happened until the end. It also had a very unexpected ending. When I clicked onto the page for this book I found out that it was on the list for "suicide books" and I was sad because I didn't suspect a suicide and so I thought the sister mentioned in the title committed suicide. While I was reading I couldn't picture the sister committing suicide and in the end I found out it wasn't her after all.

The situations in this book, when put together, are pretty unrealistic. Still, I loved it. I was intrigued from the beginning. The characters were easy to connect to emotionally. The storyline was interesting. The whole thing was really thought-provoking. It was hard to put down.

This is the third book I've read by Carol Plum-Ucci, and the third one I've enjoyed immensely. Though I didn't like it as much as [bc:What Happened to Lani Garver|347639|What Happened to Lani Garver|Carol Plum-Ucci|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1173937757s/347639.jpg|337929] or [bc:The Body of Christopher Creed|311840|The Body of Christopher Creed|Carol Plum-Ucci|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1173652664s/311840.jpg|1708510], but it was still a fantastic read. Like always, Plum-Ucci does a great job at capturing something mysterious, but just believable enough to make the reader wonder what else is out there besides us. I thought the mystery was built up nicely and I flew through the novel, as I have with her other books.
