What an artist, Vera is another talented artist that takes her style to other levels. This particular story is very strange, it is about a girl named Anya, who is Russian living in the United States. Anya is not very popular at school and one day she discovers a skeleton in the forest. She learns that the skeleton belongs to Emily and that she is trapped. Anya eventually leaves but has taken a finger bone from the skeleton. Anya is able to see Emily, which she proceeds to tell her that her lover died in WWI and that she was running from a killer when she died. Anya's promises Emily to find her killer and bring her death to justice. The story goes on with Emily meddling in Anya's life and constantly lying to her. Anaya later finds out that Emily did not have a lover but she actually murdered a young couple after the man rejected her. Countless lies after another, Emily starts to take advantage of Anya. Emily was trying to live vicariously through Anya but this all comes to an end when Anya throws Emily's skeleton down a well. Anya lost a friend because of Emily but the two later rekindle their friendship. This story Isn't too long and shows how easily friends can become jealous of one another. Be careful you trust, unfortunately people don't realize this until it is too late. The book is very cute yet has a dark story. Its interesting to see how Anya handles the situation but I feel like the story is missing something. It draws you in by the art and curiosity. I feel that this story needed something more to make it grand, it was just ok.
