I posted my review of Stacey Kade’s Queen of the Dead earlier today, and it was brought to my attention by a fellow book blogger (Thank you Michelle!) that this series seems largely overlooked… and I would agree with that. So in an attempt to correct this grave and horrifying oversight, because I’m celebrating my birthday next week AND because of an awesome sale at our local Walden’s, I’m offering up one paperback copy of the first book in the series The Ghost and the Goth. This is a super fun, solidly written series and the perfect summer read.
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 bod, 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?

I have an ARC of the second book and I keep meaning to get this book! It looks like such a fun series.
Thanks for having this contest
Hi Autumn! It is a fun series. If you’re looking for something a little lighter in tone, something that’ll make you laugh, this fits the bill.
I already read TGatG (I borrowed it from a friend–awesome book!) but I would love to have a copy on my bookshelf! Plus, this would give me the perfect excuse to spend money (again, hehe) and finnaly buy the second book.
BTW, LOVE your header image! 😀
Thanks so much for the giveaway.
It’s a good one, huh? You should definitely read the second one 😉 And thank you, the header was done by a fabulous artist (palnk) from deviantART!
Thanks for the giveaway.
