Among the Ghosts
by Amber Benson
Noleen's mother died minutes after she was born and her father is always gone on research missions, so Noh's never really had a regular childhood. Now that she's about to start at New Newbridge Academy, she's going to have to use that unusual childhood for unusual things.
It seems that New Newbridge is filled with ghosts. They are all over the place. They've died from bees stings, horse-riding accidents, fires, chopped off fingers, and more. And it turns out that Noh can see them.
It's as new and surprising to the ghosts as it is to Noh. But just as she's making new friends, they are disappearing.
Can Noh solve the mystery before they all reach the light?
Final thoughts: While I love Amber Benson the actress, I can't say much about the author. The writing was choppy and often felt as if it was written as a stream-of-consciousness attempt. There just wasn't a cohesive story that made any sense. The ending hints that this is the start of a series, but if the writing doesn't improve, I don't see it going far.
Rating: 1/5
