Looking for coming of age books with a supernatural spin.

[Nathan]

I love coming of age supernatural stories. For some reason I have a hard time finding them. I have read IT. Fear. Boy's Life. Summer of night. The traveling Vampire Show. Something Wicked This Way Comes. Ghoul. I would appreciate any good suggestions.

Ronald Malfi's "December Park" and Peter Giglio's "When We Fall" are 2 good recent ones. You've read a lot of good ones already - Boys Life and It in particular are amazing. Not sure it really qualifies as coming of age, because the childhood scenes are all just flashbacks, but Greg Gifune's "The Bleeding Season" is also excellent.

The Nine Lives of Felicia Miller

This is a bit dark but it might be just what you want.

Carrie by Stephrn King

The Day the Angels Fell by Shawn Smucker. It's a bit dark but I'm getting it for my 12 year old grandson.

I enjoy this type as well. I'm cutting and pasting from a different post, but these still apply...
A Good and Happy Child
The White Devil
The Other
Lost Boy Lost Girl
The Boy Who Drew Monsters

Childhood's End

It isn't specifically horror, but it is a masterwork the "coming of age" story with supernatural elements.

Omg, The Tooth Fairy by Graham Joyce. It was amazing. I put off reading it for a long time because the title is kinda lame, but it was one of the best.

The Tooth Fairy is an amazing book. I love all of Graham Joyce's books. If you haven't already, you need to read Year of the Ladybird. It's even better than The Tooth Fairy. It was released in the US under the title- The Ghost in the Electric Blue suit. Amazing coming of age tale

Dark Sister by Graham Joyce is also amazing. But it's not a coming of age story.

But these two are:

Revival

The Neverending Story

by Robert McCammon would have been my first suggestion, also , by Brett McBean if you want one with a "supernatural" touch.

The Awakening is on my to-be-read list.

The Awakening is a great book.

Am I allowed to post my own book here? I wrote a supernatural ghost story/coming-of-age novella I'd love to share.

You are not. I'll leave your post up and if anyone wants to click on your name, they can, but please refrain in the future.
Good luck to you!

Okay, cool. I received some links from one of the mods for promo purposes, and I'm trying to find my way around. If you can point me in better directions, please do. DM or here :)
