For Kate Bennet, surviving the car wreck that killed her parents means big changes and even bigger problems. As she begins to see auras and invisible people, Kate must learn to trust Patrick O'Donnell, a handsome Guardian, or risk her life being overrun with Demons. She soon realizes that both she and her heart are in big-time trouble.
Seers by Heather Frost is a great debut novel. She managed to completely engage me in Kate Bennet's world and portrayed her grief in a realistic and sensitive manner. Heather Frost makes it clear that she is comfortable in her writing style and it shows in the easy reading style she inspires.
Her characters are all well developed and endearing. I do believe that a large number of readers will be swooning over the wonderful character that is Patrick O'Donnell, and I have a strong feeling that he might just go down as one of the yummiest guys in YA right now.
All round this was a very solid and enjoyable book. There were some minor twinges that I think might just be a personal preference rather than a writing flaw, but I do feel that sometimes less is more and without getting too spoilerish here I think perhaps in one small instance too much detail was given.
The good news is that this was very obviously the start of a series and I am definitely looking forward to reading the rest of it. I will be sorely disappointed if Seers does not become a series.
