Anora Silby can see the dead. But she’s got an even deeper secret. She can turn spirits into coins. And when one of her coins goes missing, people begin to die. All in all, I really really enjoyed the story and the new world it had given me. So I believe it deserves a 4 stars. First you have Anora, who could see ghosts but doesn't know what she is. Then you have Shy who was some creature that can turn from human to a raven. It's all a little strange, but I didn't love or hate either of the main characters. Anora Silby is getting a fresh start. She had to leave her home in New York after a mysterious accident left people whispering and gossiping about her. The thing is, she can see the dead, which makes being a teenager all the harder. Now, at her new school she is going to keep her head down, not cause any trouble, and definitely not engage with any of the dead she can see. Shes partnered up with Shy, the schools popular boy, to be shown around the school and she can't help but feel that she knows him. Sweet on the outside, Shy is hiding a massive secret, one that includes a large majority of the town she just moved to. Keeping herself out of trouble may be harder than she expected... When Stars Come Out was actually pretty fun to read. At first, things were moving a bit slowly but that's because our main girl was getting used to the new town, school, and people. Now Anora, the main girl, was pretty interesting and good see ghosts. Which doesn't seem like the easiest thing to live with, and she definitely proves that over and over again. Unfortunately, ghosts are the only thing she should be worried about.

Nope, there's a mysterious boy that seems to make her smile. As well as other sketchy stuff too. Whether it's people who are acting suspicious, or the ghosts, she's not exactly sure who she should or shouldn't trust. If only the strangeness would end there. I was not sure what to expect from this book but it sounded like a good and interesting read. It didn't diappoint. The genres: YA and Urban FantasyThis was written in first person. It actually switches between Anora and Shy's POV, but you don't actually know that until like 7 chapters in, which I thought was strange. If I could give you anything in this life, it would be the happiness you feel when you look at the stars."

This book was honestly the most pleasant surprise!! YA to its core it gave me the nostalgic vibes of being something I’ve read and loved before with a story that was wholly it’s own. Second, the flow of the story was fast but not too fast that I felt some parts were skipped. No, the story had a really smooth flow from beginning to end. Props to the author.

Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons! I was looking for a change of scene Other than Anora, we meet Shy. It's an interesting name for a mysterious guy. He doesn't know what's going on with Anora, but he does feel a certain tug towards her. Some would call that fate and others wouldn't. So, it shouldn't be a surprise when people tell him to stay away from her. Funny thing about fate, he can't because it hurts to ignore her.

I really liked the villain(s) of the story. Their characters were multi-faceted and we got a deep look into their wounds. It was easy to understand why they acted the way they did. I did begin to suspect them, so it was a little predictable, but that didn’t take away from my enjoyment.As it turns out, hiding her weirdness is just one of many challenges. By the end of her first day, she's claimed the soul of a dead girl and and lost the coin. Turns out, the coin gives others the ability to steal souls, and when a classmate turns up dead, there's no mistaking the murder weapon. Shy is what I imagine the teenage Desmond Flynn would have been, change my mind!! That is by far the highest honor I can think to bestow on him and I love, Love, LOVED his chemistry with Anora. I just want to see so much more of them and their building, forbidden love!! If you love dark romances, don’t let the YA tag scare you away because this series is going places!!
