Not what I expected, but awesome twists. :)

From the description (or at least, my memory of it), the title, and the cover, I expected something a little more paranormal. Ghosts, arguably, *are* paranormal, but I expected that element to come from the MC, rather than on of the other characters.

I read an ARC I received from the publisher, so I wasn't able to make use of the enhanced e-book options.

I really enjoyed the twists, but some of them were a little confusing to me--mostly because my own preconceived expectations. For a long while, I wasn't sure if the villain was an angel or a ghost. I thought he was an angel at first, but it's later made clear exactly what he is.

Things I wished had happened: I wish the secret behind the MC's powers had been explained better, as well as how and why the main plot points (non-spoilery alert: revenge) worked the way they did and what made them possible. All in all, a lot more solid world building would have made me a happy camper. :)
