What a charming and unexpected story! The cover is intriguing, but other than that I knew very little going in, I was just encouraged to read this book. Actually, I was told to listed to the audio because the narrator was excellent, and that was a very accurate description; she was pretty great. This book did not go the way I was expecting, it wasn't some big mystery or some spooky paranormal story. It really just had a lot of heart, growth and significant character development which I really appreciate. I'm going to have to check out this author, I really like his style very much.
