Once dead, twice shy!


My name is Madison Avery, and I'm here to tell you that there's more out there than you can see, hear, or touch. Because I'm there. Seeing it. Touching it. Living it.

Madison's prom was killer—literally. For some reason she's been targeted by a dark reaper—yeah, that kind of reaper—intent on getting rid of her, body and soul. But before the reaper could finish the job, Madison was able to snag his strange, glowing amulet and get away. Now she's stuck on Earth—dead but not gone. Somehow the amulet gives her the illusion of a body, allowing her to toe the line between life and death. She still doesn't know why the dark reaper is after her, but she's not about to just sit around and let fate take its course.
With a little ingenuity, some light-bending, and the help of a light reaper (one of the good guys! Maybe . . . ), her cute crush, and oh yeah, her guardian angel, Madison's ready to take control of her own destiny once and for all, before it takes control of her.
Well, if she believed in that stuff.

I was bored while I was off school and i had literaly nothing to do but mope around because i couldn't get hold of anyone. I know AWWW! I thought well this could be interesting or an utter waste of time however it turned out to be the former. Madison is a strong capable character who can take care of hersef and others she doesn't just go along with what others say and I respected that about her. My favourite charecter had to be Grace though with her humorous limericks and natrual quirkyness. The story is well written and while it does mainly revolve around her death it also acts like she does actualy have a normal life. Her charecter grows alot from the begining as she is quite reckless. I would definatly recomend this book as it can be quite serious but Grace makes it humorous and takes abit of the serious edge off. Highly funny dead fun!
