This book at first was slow moving for me personally. I just was not sure if I could even finish. But then as I got through the slow stuff, the intrigue started to wrap around me. How interesting with this mystic woman giving these individual children the date of their deaths? And at first, I assumed nothing of it. Will they even remember these dates? Well, this is the meat of the story! These children grow up NEVER forgetting when "they are supposed to die"!!! And one by one, by CHOICES made, they start dying, believing this mystic! BUT, we own our destinies, don't we? Our fate cannot be pre-determined! We can change our lives around to be able to "reroute" our destinies.... Truly amazing, right? You will just have to read the book to make your own assumptions!
