Finch dies in a car accident.. but she starts breathing again and survives where her parents don’t. After her accident, she’s accepted to the prestigious boarding school where she meets Selena. 

Finch and Selena both know about this paranormal creature that offers them favors. At first, she doesn’t need anything in return, but then she needs hair, fingernails, etc..

I read this author’s newest book, and she definitely has a specific writing style. I enjoyed the other book, which is why I read this one. It was good, albeit a bit gorey, but still an interesting story with a little backstory for the main characters. Could have used more backstory on characters like Simon, Sumera, Amber, Risa, etc.
