Evie’s always thought of herself as normal. Sure, her best friend is a mermaid, her ex-boyfriend is a faerie, she’s falling for a shapeshifter and she’s the only person who can see through paranormals’ glamour’s, but still. Normal.
    
Only now paranormals are dying and Evie’s dreams are filling with haunting voices and mysterious prophecies. She begins to suspect there is a link between her abilities and the sudden rash of deaths and even worse, that she is at the centre of a dark prophecy promising destruction to all paranormal creatures.

The Why’s  
First review;
So this book is about this girl, Evie, who is taken in by a government agency to hunt down and tag paranormal creatures. Only what she doesn’t know about herself will cost her everything.
But Paranormals are being killed and when she meets a shapeshifting boy she finds out that she too is one of their files, and a high profile one. They end up leaving the facility after the killer comes and cleans the place out. But not before they see who she is, an identical copy of Evie.
So the questions start and one the other Evie can answer along with a fairy that just wants to act without explanation.
Anyway, so it’s about all that along with teen love.

And that’s about it. It just didn’t...do anything for me, really I can’t remember anything about the book these day except that the main charactered annoyed me with her hyperness, and the male, well...yeah, there wasn’t anything that pulled me in one this one book and I can say for certain that I never wanted to, for a minute, read onto the next one.
There was nothing, absolutely nothing for me. but I hear most everyone else that reads it loves it. 

the covers of this series is pretty though, and I think apt. 
its the one thing about the series that I actually like, that they have a cover that soots the books his covering.
