Everything Sad is Untrue
|
 Stephen was born invisible and destined to a very lonely life until he meets Elizabeth who happens to be the only person who can see him. They figure out that a curse has been placed on him and they want to break that curse, but it means killing his evil grandfather.
I picked this book up because I loved the Night Shade trilogy, but this book just didn't work for me. There was just too much internal angst. I didn't enjoy Elizabeth's stressed out insecurity and her lack of assertiveness or confidence. Interesting idea for the plot, but I needed a stronger female character.

I love a good mystery, and although I correctly guessed the murderer in the first chapter, I still thoroughly enjoyed the twists and turns.
