This is definitely a different kind of read. I don't think I've read many ghost stories but I like that this one is told from a male's POV and that it's about a ghost hunter and a ghost who obviously develop feelings for each other. How they meet and fall for each other is pretty interesting and definitely not a "love at first sight" kind of deal. What I was a bit disappointed with was that there wasn't any of the eerie, creepy, scariness that I was expecting. People made it out to be this crazy, intense & chilling story, but it was kind of mild-mannered to me. Sure there were some vivid moments where Anna unleashed hell, and Kendare does a great job at writing details and painting a picture, I guess I was expecting more gore and horror. 
 Her characters were well-made and I was surprised at the significance of a few of them, but in a good way. I especially loved Carmel. She's a fun character and you will definitely learn to love her. Anna was nice too, although there wasn't much of her actual presence in the story as I would've liked until practically the end, but you still get to know the girl and see why she is the way she is. Cas was a great male lead and it was interesting being inside his head. 
 One thing I will also mention is this book is nothing like it seems. There is a darker mystery behind Cas' past that plays into the story and Anna's death was certainly a tragic one that left me shaking my head, going "WTH?!?! Seriously?!?". But that was in a good way, like "Whoa, I can't believe that happened!", lol. You definitely haven't seen anything like it before. 
 Anna was a great debut and I can't wait for the sequel!
