GHOSTGIRL - Tonya Hurley

It's a total great book! I just finished reading it and it was amazing! I swear here's the summary *pretty much*


Ever feel invisible? Charlotte Usher did. Teased by classmates, overlooked by teachers, beneath contempt of the popular and ignored by Damen, the guy of her dreams, she barely registered on the radar at Hawthorne High. The kind of girl no one would ever miss if she died tomorrow. And then she did...
The End?
Not exactly...

Who's Who?

Charlotte
CharlotteHawthorne High's hopeless romantic, Charlotte Usher was out of step and out of time. She tried to fit in so badly that she ended up accidentally choking to death on a gummy bear in Physics class. Almost immediately, she 'wakes' up in a parallel spirit world where she still has to go to school - Dead Ed - in a special classroom filled with dead teens, all of whom met their demise by typical teenage misadventure. Now, as 'ghostgirl,' Charlotte refuses to let go of her dreams and the Living World, using her supernatural 'abilities' to win popularity and, most importantly, to win Damen's heart. Invisible both in life and death, she finds her self stuck in a world that she doesn't understand and still obsessed with a world that she is no longer part of.
Dying to be popular... 



Scarlet
ScarletThe coolest chick at Hawthorne, Scarlet is the only living person that can see Charlotte. She is a smart, savvy, independent but a somewhat jaded Goth girl who much prefers her own company to that of her older sister Petula and her sycophantic cheerleader friends 'The Wendys.' Scarlet is totally DIY -- with her Trash And Vaudeville style and jet-black bob. She is the dressed-in-black sheep of the school, definitely not a part of Hawthorne's 'mindless herd.'.
I see dead people... 


Damen
DamenHawthorne Hottie, Damen Dylan is everyone's object of desire, especially Charlotte's. She believes that if he really got to know her, he'd fall madly in love with her. He's handsome, charming and athletic but also more independent thinking and far more decent and down-to-earth than he lets on. Not much for academics, he's the captain of the football team and secretly knows more about guitar strings than String Theory. Along with his vain and devious girlfriend Petula, they pretty much rule the school. Guys want to be him and girls just plain want him. Every girl, that is, except Scarlet.
What a hottie, too bad he's alive... 



Petula
PetulaThe most popular girl at Hawthorne High and captain of the cheerleading squad, Petula Kensington spends her time making plastic surgery markings with bronzer on her friends' faces, admiring herself in anything reflective and dreaming up new ways to exclude people. Secretly envied by Charlotte and the rest of the student body, Petula could care less about anyone or anything but herself. Petula and Damen are an item despite the fact that they have nothing in common except a winning ticket in the DNA lottery and, well, because they are popular and that's the way it goes.
No extra seats at the lunch table here... 


Prue
PruePrue rules the dead world much as Petula does the living and is the RA of Hawthorne Manor, the dead dorm - or as the dead occupants call it - the 'worm dorm.' She is really good at being dead, having mastered many of the skills that Charlotte has only just acquired. Most everyone at the Manor fears her. Prue resents Charlotte's efforts to remain connected to the living world and believes that only trouble will come of it for all the Dead Kids.
Dead head bully... 


Piccolo Pam
Piccolo PamPam is Charlotte's mentor on the Other Side. Like Charlotte and the other Dead Kids, she died accidentally, impaling herself on her piccolo while show-boating during the all-country band parade. Now, whenever she speaks, a faint flute-like sound emanates from her throat. She's loyal to Charlotte and has become her most trusted ally.
I got the music in me... 


The Wendys
WendysWendy Thomas and Wendy Anderson are more like Petula's backup singers than best friends. Not very independent minded, they are referred to as 'The Wendys' because they are thought to not only share the same first name, but to also share the same brain.
Got brain?

  1. What if martyrs and saints lived among us? And what if you were told you were one of them? Meet Agnes, Cecilia, and Lucy. Three lost girls, each searching for something. But what they find is Beyond Belief.
