Bex, a senior in high school usually keeps to herself and has few friends. Students in her senior class begin dying in strange circumstances. Before their deaths they all seem to be haunted by relatives their family swears never existed. Soon, Bex begins seeing an aunt that she believes wasn’t real, but everyone in her family says she was. They prove this with family pictures and an obituary from her untimely death in the 60s. Bex starts digging into the families of her now passed classmates to find connections and stop what happened to them to continue. 

This was a great read! Bex’s struggle with autism felt very authentic and the mystery kept me so engaged that I finished this book in two sittings. It was very well written and the story line was complicated but in a good way. I had put some thought into what was actually happening at the end otherwise it might not make any sense. With it being a young adult book, the deaths were gory and it wasn’t over the top scary by any means.
