Narration To Books The Ghost and the Goth (The Ghost and the Goth #1)
Alona Dare–Senior in high school, co-captain of the cheerleading squad, Homecoming Queen three years in a row, voted most likely to marry a movie star… and newly dead.I’m the girl you hated in high school. Is it my fault I was born with it all-good looks, silky blond hair, a hot body, and a keen sense of what everyone else should not be wearing? But my life isn’t perfect, especially since I died. Run over by a bus of band geeks—is there anything more humiliating? As it turns out, yes—watching your boyfriend and friends move on with life, only days after your funeral. And you wouldn’t believe what they’re saying about me now that they think I can’t hear them. To top it off, I’m starting to disappear, flickering in and out of existence. I don’t know where I go when I’m gone, but it’s not good. Where is that freaking white light already?
Will Killian–Senior in high school, outcast, dubbed “Will Kill” by the popular crowd for the unearthly aura around him, voted most likely to rob a bank…and a ghost-talker.
I can see, hear, and touch the dead. Unfortunately, they can also see, hear and touch me. Yeah, because surviving high school isn’t hard enough already. I’ve done my best to hide my “gift.” After all, my dad, who shared my ability, killed himself because of it when I was fifteen. But lately, pretending to be normal has gotten a lot harder. A new ghost—an anonymous, seething cloud of negative energy with the capacity to throw me around—is pursuing me with a vengeance. My mom, who knows nothing about what I can do, is worrying about the increase in odd incidents, my shrink is tossing around terms like “temporary confinement for psychiatric evaluation,” and my principal, who thinks I’m a disruption and a faker, is searching for every way possible to get rid of me. How many weeks until graduation?

Theres nothing better than a book that surprises you in a good way. My story for this book is a long one, dating years back to when I added pretty much anything and everything to my ever-growing tbr pile. I was picky back then, too-Dont be fooled. However, I didnt quite know what I loved and how to decipher what made me tick, down to my deepest molecule. So when I did my most recent delete spree for my tbr pile, this had to go. I mean, it had all the signs of books I try to stay away from:1.5 stars.I feel like Ive read this book a hundred times before.Obviously, I havent, or Id be mad right by now, but I couldnt bring myself to find anything original about The Ghost and the Goth and Im a huge fan of ghost books.Tell me if this doesnt sound familiar to you. A beautiful, popular blond cheerleader is hit by a bus and dies instantly. When she roams the hallways of her high school, she realizes that she wasnt as loved as she thought.Its no surprise that this character in question is

I just finished this two minutes ago and I have THE BIGGEST grin on my face.I don't know if I have a soft spot for ghosts (yeah, right) or for KICK-ASS characters,but luckyly for me, this book happens to have both.So imagine how happy I was all through this read.I randomly found the book description here in goodreads and was blown away by howsimilar it sounded to Shadowland my all time favorite YA series. And opposite to what others might do,being all like 'Aw there's no way something can be as
This summer has officially been the BIGGEST READING SLUMP of my entire life! Its so sad because I have OVER 70 books on my tbr pile and I feel like I've hardly gone through any of them nor have I wanted to. Thank god their haven't been too many summer releases, otherwise I'd be buying books and letting them gather dust on my bookshelf. Basically, I struggled all of June with reading. I'd either a) find a book I liked and read through it so incredibly slowly that I'd fall asleep while reading
