Best part of story, including ending:
The plot was intriguing, but there were a lot of spiritual mumbo-jumbo and technicalities that I could have done without. They were unnecessarily convoluted and confusing.
Best scene in story:
My favorite scene is the scene in Alexis's grandmother's graveyard because it was spooky and thrilling.
Opinion about the main character:
Daisy is snarky and sarcastic. She also doesn't turn into a mushy puddle every time Carson looks her way. She is likeable and not at all Bella-from-Twilight-esque.
