Summary of "Shimmer"

I am reading the book Shimmer. So far it has bin a amazing book especially since it is the second book of Radiance the book I read last time. In this book so far Bodhi has noticed the Riley is more stubborn because she had tried to get a black dog to cross the bridge when the dog wasn't assigned to her by the council. Later in the story while she was trying to find the dog she ran into another person but she was dead. At first she transformed into Riley but made her girly but after a while she realized Riley was dead like her so she transformed into her normal self. Riley found her really odd because she was also in a cemetery. After a while Riley gave up on finding the dog and went back to Bohi and she said "she will try not to be stubborn and actually follow Bodhi rules".

The point of view for Shimmer is first person. Here in the book one of lines it is " I followed the sound of it." First person uses I, we, etc. and in the book Riley is telling the story. I like book with first person because then it isn't than confusing on who the narrator is talking about or speaking for. Since its just one person then it won't be that complicated.
