Cass is still trying to navigate her new ability of seeing ghosts and learns some truths in very difficult ways. At first, I was a bit disappointed but it ended up being refreshing to read a truly innocent and naïve character surrounded by Schwab’s unique writing style. Since City of Ghosts isn’t quite as dark as the other books, the main character, Cassidy, doesn’t have the somewhat antihero tendencies I’ve come to expect and love from Schwab’s characters. This is what I love about Schwab so much her ability of creating fantastically strange and mysterious situations. I enjoyed this new paranormal world Schwab creates and even though it’s for a younger audience, I found myself captivated from start to finish. This series is different in the fact it’s for a younger audience so although dark, it’s not quite as much as her other series. Just like with her Villains or Shades of Magic series written under her penname, the Cassidy Blake series starts off strong with unique characters and a clever storyline. Schwab, knows how to write dark, thrilling characters and worlds. City of Ghosts (Cassidy Blake #1) by Victoria Schwab
