The characters seemed a bit one dimensional – Nash, all of a sudden heard Kaylee, knew what she was and was overtaken by an all consuming passion for her – just by hearing her voice which calls to him. But what happens to those peoples’ souls who die without a Banshee there to help with this? Plus in this book there seem to be hoards of banshees all living within the immediate vicinity of each other. Kaylee is a banshee, she sees people’s auras and can see they’re going to die and then she is consumed with the need to scream at the top of her lungs (but apparently this sounds like a beautiful soul song to any other Banshees in the vicinity) and the point of this is to help the soul pass over – or to make the soul linger. The concept of what Kaylee was and her abilities just felt somehow pointless. Within a matter of days (or hours) the two main characters were completely comfortable with each other. I did read it fairly quickly because it’s a fairly straightforward read but nothing really stood out for me. I don’t know a great deal about Banshees and I would be interested in finding out more but that being said I found this novel a bit flat.

She’s a fairly regular girl except she seems to have developed a talent for predicting people’s deaths and it turns out that Kaylee is in actual fact a Banshee or Bean Sidhe. Kaylee lives with her aunt and uncle and cousin Sophie. MSTT is about a young girl called Kaylee. I was looking forward to this book very much but unfortunately it didn’t really live up to my expectations.
