Book Review

(by- Linda )

Would you live your life differently if you knew your date of death? The date your brothers and sisters would die? It's an interesting concept, original and the basic premise of this bittersweet story. It's about four siblings, who on a whim, visit a psychic who tells each of them when they will die.

I have mixed feeling about this book. It's really four separate stories, one for each sibling, a format I find frustrating. It always seems like I'm starting over and getting reinvested in the story. But that's just me. Hence, the four stars.

However, I loved how this book made me think: about life, death, family, love, and fate. I loved each character's story and only wished for a little more cohesiveness. I enjoyed the dynamics between the four and watching the decisions they made knowing when they would die.
