19 year-old Wes Auckerman has just moved to New York City to
attend a filmmaker summer program at NYU. While helping a friend film a séance
in the Bowery, Wes and his friend, Tyler, see a beautiful girl with a satin bow
in the way of the camera frame. As the night progresses, Wes can’t seem to find
her again. Due to his curiosity to find out more about her and Tyler’s need to
find this mysterious girl to sign a release paper, Wes goes to find her. Once
he finds her and they start spending more time together, Wes tries to uncover
parts of Annie’s past. Also, how is she connected to Maddie, the other
mysterious girl Wes met at the séance? As Wes and Annie travel around NYC
trying to find her missing ring, Wes learns more about her past and why she
seems otherworldly.
I
really enjoyed this book so I gave it 4 out of 5 stars. I love Katherine Howe’s writing style and I thought
this book was very good. I really liked the characters and how bizarre some of
them were. I also liked the dual POV’s and that some parts were from Wes’ POV
and other were from Annie’s. Sometimes it doesn’t work very well and it gets
confusing when authors do that but I think it went along smoothly in this book.
If you have ever read Katherine Howe’s other book Conversion I think you would like this book as well. It has
that thriller/mystery twist to it that really keeps you wanting to read more. I
really enjoyed this book all together.
