Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

Anora Silby can see the dead and turn spirits into gold coins, two things she would prefer to keep secret as she tries to lead a normal life at her new school. After all, she didn’t change her identity for nothing. As it turns out, hiding her weirdness is just one of many challenges. By the end of her first day, she’s claimed the soul of a dead girl on campus and lost the coin. Turns out, the coin gives others the ability to steal souls, and when a classmate ends up dead, there’s no mistaking the murder weapon. Navigating the loss of her Poppa, her mother’s mistrust, and Roundtable, an anonymous student gossip app threatening to expose her, are hard enough. Now she must find the person who stole her coin before more lives are lost, but that means making herself a target for the Order, an organization that governs the dead on Earth -- and they want Anora and her powers for themselves.

    I quite enjoyed this book, it gave me mortal instruments vibes. Our MC can see dead people but not only that she can trap their souls in coins and those coins can be used to do something powerful and therefore people want her. But she doesn’t even know what she is. The world building was fantastic and the “good guys” were interesting, ||the fact that they can shape shift into ravens||. What I’ll never understand in these types of books, like twilight and so on why they make them attend a regular high school.. for like no reason.
