The Ghost and The Goth (review)

The Ghost and The Goth
By Stacey Kade
Summary: After a close encounter with the front end of a school bus, Alona Dare goes from Homecoming Queen to Queen of the Dead. Now she’s stuck here in spirit form with no sign of the big, bright light coming to take her away. To make matters worse, the only person who might be able to help her is Will Killian, a total loser/outcast type who hates the social elite. He alone can see and hear her, but he wants nothing to do with the former mean girl of Groundsboro High.
Can they get over their mutual distrust—and this weird attraction between them—to work together before Alona vanishes for good and Will is locked up for seeing things that don’t exist?

Review: Just by looking at the cover I wanted to read this book. It’s so pretty and after reading I know it goes perfectly with the story. From Alona’s outfit to the bench, it’s a perfect cover. Then with the intriguing and fun summary how could you pass by without picking  it up?

The story definitely lives up to hype. While it was an entertaining and enjoyable story, The Ghost and The Goth was also mysterious and suspenseful. Throughout the book it switched from Alona's to Will's point of view. I liked reading the story from two different sides. While Alona was the typical mean girl who only cared about herself, Will balanced her out perfectly. Then you add a few plot twists and you have a great story.

This is definently a book to add to your TBR list. I can’t wait to read the next in the series so I can find out what happens to Alona and Will in their next big adventure.
