One for Sorrow is an interesting debut novel. One of the strengths of the book is the narrative voice, which seemed to be a very authentic representation of a 15-year-old boy. While it has some elements of a ghost story and a murder mystery, the novel mainly chronicled Adam's attempts to make sense of his life and his world. The plot seemed a little too aimless at times and the ending seemed a little too pat. However, I was impressed with the creativity of the supernatural elements, and I enjoyed how unpredictable much of the story felt.
