Wow. That's the first thing I have to say about this book. Wow.
Stephen has been invisible his whole life. It's part of a curse placed on his mother before he was born. No one - not even Stephen himself - has ever seen him.
And then Elizabeth moves in, and she sees him plain as day.
As they start to fall maybe-in-love, Stephen and Elizabeth (and Elizabeth's brother Laurie, who might just be the most fun character in the book because of all his snark) are plunged into a whole new world of cursecasting and spellseeking in a desperate attempt to unravel the curse on Stephen - before it kills one of them.
The emotion in this book is just incredible. Ever wished you could just be invisible? You won't anymore. It's kind of a haunting look at the downside of one of those go-to "superpowers," as well as what it means to really care about somebody.
The writing is beautiful, the characters are kick-butt, and the story - well, I couldn't put it down. Seriously, read this ASAP. This is a truly fantastic book.
