Boy the first third of this book was good. It was all about how being a teenager with a mental illness makes you different, but not THAT different, and how you just have to learn to live with your past mistakes.The rest of this book was about how the only way to solve a spooky mystery and save your friends and family is to go off your meds--for science!--to prove that they protect you from ghosts. Also, it turns out that having a mental illness DOES make you fundamentally different from everyone else in your life, and as a result you will be haunted forever because apparently bipolar disorder leaves you open to possession by angry ghosts.Way to totally blow it, Garsee. A disappointment really. 1.5 rating...?The book started out pretty well at first. The right amount of suspense, the way the author wrote the story so that it builds up bit by bit. Usually the climax of the book would be just before the middle of the book. But in this book, starting almost from the middle, the story just became monotonous. I could barely bring myself to finish this book, it was really confusing. So many distracting points in the book that I really didn't know where and what to focus on. When the deaths slowly occurred and people went mad because of the rumored spirit that haunts the tunnels. Nothing made sense. I couldn't tell which part is the climax because I didn't feel like there was any part in this book that deserved to be called a climax. And then the ending when we discovered why this girl did so many things to the selected few, it was because of the previous generation. Ridiculous really, and the whole flashback happened so fast that I didn't even need to blink until the part was over. Really disappointing really. I'm not one to write down a book, but I encountered a few books I would mark down as a never-to-read kind of book sadly, and this is one of them. I really hope the next book I pick up would be better.
