Good characters but...

...but the book's based on one supernatural event and it does nothing with it. The event gets everyone thinking about death and fate, and the characters do have some growth, but then it doesn't say anything about them either. I felt it was just a missed opportunity.

Either dive deeper and don't rely on the supernatural as a story crutch, or use the supernatural to get us to think about how fate and death might be different than our current beliefs.

I suppose I got frustrated; sorry about the rant.
