    beautiful dead is a good book and has a sad story it made me feel sympathy for the main character .it made me sad when darina could not go to her boyfriend phonex i felt like that was unfair for her to stay away from him.also i think that why didntt they believe her that she new someone lived in the house but they thought that she had dremet it all but she new it was all true.if i was darina i would have never let him go and would stay with him from thick and thin.i would give the book as a 5* rating out of 5 .it was quite catchy,adventourous and spontaneous which made me want to read something new.

    Beautiful dead is a mysterious story which makes you want to read more every chapter. It is spooky, very enjoyable for people who don’t even like these type of books. I think that it was sad at the beginning because of the fact Darinas boyfriend died and that nobody could understand how she really felt but when she was re-united with Phoenix (her dead boyfriend) it was very heartwarming. Also the way that she dealt with the beautiful dead afterwards and helping them was a brave thing to do. I would rate this book 8/10.

  4. I found this book very boring no offence to who ever enjoyed the book but this book didn’t mean anything to me. I liked the story line but the rest was boring

  5. Beautiful dead is an emotional and touching book about a girl who experienced several deaths and finds an unknown land were the dead live and speak.A gripping novel which takes you in the book.

  6. Beautiful dead is an amazing book. It makes you wonder what it’s going to be about. When i read the blurb it was very interesting. It’s about a girl called Darina who has to find out who has murdered is. It’s a mysterious book. After i had read the book i thought that the story was incredible. And i just love the thought of the sound of beating wings echoes. I can even imagine it in my head. it is so good to read its like you are in the book yourself!
