Phantom Touch by Jessica Hawke 1st book in the Phantoms series. Intense YA paranormal. Bridget sees dead people. It started after her sister was killed in a car accident two years ago. Valerie stuck around to be with Bridget. Now Bridget is helping other ghosts get past their unexpected deaths. When a student goes missing, Bridget knows she didn’t simply run away. But what can she do? She’s only a 16 year old kid. Or so she tells everyone.
An intense thriller you’ll want to read in one sitting. Bridget may only be 16 but she’s smart and willing to put herself on the line. This book was gripping and captivating. Touches of humor and sentimental tears at the end, I love it all the way through. I will definitely come back and read the rest of this series.… (more)
I love her writing style. While the spaces between the paragraphs breaks my eyes from the story, the section gaps makes the story feel as if the paragraphs aren't connected.
It is wonderful to go back to the beginning as an intro to Bridgette and Valerie giving us a chance to fall in love all over again.
Hawke's Phantom Touch is a thoroughly engaging red. Bridget, a young girl who can see ghosts, is perfectly charming. Her friend, Emily, is at times, irritating, but overall she is loyal.
When Bridget is faced with a spirit that frightens her, the stakes get higher. No longer can she hope to be normal, and perhaps, risk her own life.
This book was a great YA read. I look forward to reading more of Hawke's work.
