false<![CDATA[Give Up the Ghost]]>62402231Cass McKenna much prefers the company of ghosts over "breathers." Ghosts are uncomplicated and dependable, and they know the dirt on everybody... and Cass loves dirt. She's on a mission to expose the dirty secrets of the poseurs in her school.
But when the vice president of the student council discovers <i>her</i> secret, Cass's whole scheme hangs in the balance. Tim wants her to help him contact his recently deceased mother, and Cass reluctantly agrees.
As Cass becomes increasingly entwined in Tim's life, she's surprised to realize he's not so bad--and he needs help more desperately than anyone else suspects. Maybe it's time to give the living another chance...6422989book1592009Give Up the Ghosttotal:140|5:47|4:56|3:29|2:7|1:1|1405617916743falsefalseFri Sep 11 00:00:00 -0700 2009Mon Jun 01 16:44:44 -0700 2009Wed Sep 16 15:40:43 -0700 2009

From the very first line--"You would think it'd be easy to get along with a person after she's dead."--I was hooked. In so many respects, seventeen-year-old Cassie was me--angry, isolated, at the bottom of the high school pecking order...more...]]>

For a first novel I want to say well done! I almost gave this 4 stars but I felt it was missing something that I couldn't put my finger on. I really really liked the characters and will be looking for a second book. Cass was a great example of a teenage girl; I enjoyed seeing her learn about hers...more...]]>

First Impressions:
Thea: When I finished Give up the Ghost, I found myself at a loss at how to write this review. It’s a deceptively simple story, a sliver of the life of a teenage girl struggling with her own improbable powers and her f...more...]]>

This book has lively characters, which is ironic because...they're dead! The secondary characters were just as interesting, if not more so, as the main characters. The author really gets you t...more...]]>

I’d be lying if I said I hadn’t anticipated this book much—I was dying for it! So when it first landed on my lap, I literally squealed. So naturally, I had a lot to expect from this book. And believe me, I wasn’t disappointed.
Cass McKenna is a social pari...more...]]>
