Kami Glass is in love with someone she's never met - a boy the rest of the world is convinced is imaginary. This has made her an outsider in the sleepy English town of Sorry-in-the-Vale, but she doesn't complain. She runs the school newspaper and keeps to herself for the most part - until disturbing events begin to happen. There has been screaming in the woods and the dark, abandoned manor on the hill overlooking the town has lit up for the first time in 10 years. The Lynburn family, who ruled the town a generation ago and who all left without warning, have returned. As Kami starts to investigate for the paper, she finds out that the town she has loved all her life is hiding a multitude of secrets- and a murderer- and the key to it all just might be the boy in her head. The boy who everyone thought was imaginary may be real and he may be dangerous.

Sarah Rees Brennan never fails to amaze me. This book is yet another instant favorite. I love these characters and the little town in England. There was so much to discover in this world and I loved learning every part. The story unfolded at a perfect pace with just the right amount of mystery and intrigue. I'm still in shock with how it ended and I'm beyond looking forward to the next installment, even though I know it will take me a while to actually pick it up.
The main character, Kami, was so interesting to read and learn about in this book. She wasn't a quiet, scared, or boring female lead. She had strong intentions for her family and friends. She was the type of girl that would sneak into buildings to get stories for her school newspaper.
When you learn about Kami having someone in her mind, it is really interesting because Jared seems so sweet. The reader doesn't know much about his past in the beginning. I really enjoyed this book because of the connection that Jared and Kami had in their minds. When Kami finally meets Jared, he is completely different than I imagined but once you heard that there was a new kid named Jared in town; I knew it was him.
This story has lots of twists and turns between the two main characters and also with the story they are trying to crack together. When the reader learns about his family, it makes sense. I really enjoyed this book but the end leaves you with a raging cliff hanger! I know the second one is out so I will probably pick that up sometime soon. I must know what happens with Kami and Jared!
