Roxie Clark comes from a cursed family. Most of the women in her family die young. Her mother is no exception. Now, Roxie, a legal to drive high school student, plays into her history by reliving her heritage in the form of ghost tours. Roxie has experienced death and knows how to put on a good show. Not only has her mother passed, but her sister, Skylar’s boyfriend Collin was found murdered just a year ago. Roxie, in trying to help bring her sister out of her depression, gives her sister a present that Collin intended to present at graduation. But this present was not expected and sends Skylar and Roxie looking Collin’s killer.

This book wasn’t bad, it was a fun listen, but it was not the best of the bunch either. The author is trying to make Roxie a Manic Pixie Goth girl, but it comes off as to run of the mill. She is constantly worried about who she can trust, and when will the ghosts be avenged. It fits nicely within it’s genera, and many will find it an exciting read. And it is perfect for spooky season, or any other season. ( )

A great sophomore novel from teen author, Brooke Lauren Davis. Roxie Clark is obsessed with the macabre, she's the weird outcast of her high school because of her gothic witchy style, but that doesn't stop he from being her weird little self. She runs a ghost tour in the evenings and gets to share all the weird stories she's uncovered at the library about the untimely deaths of her ancestors. Roxie has seen three dead bodies - but it's only the third one that haunts her - her sister's boyfriend and her best friend's brother, Colin. She doesn't include that tale on her tours - it's still too new and too fresh. But at least he's coping. Her sister hasn't hardly gotten out of bed in a year - what finally gets her moving is a surprise to them both and the chain of events it starts will answer some long buried questions and turn everything they thought they knew upside down. Slow build up - but the end was a surprise. Love this author! ( )
