Charlotte Usher, a.k.a. ghostgirl, discovers that the afterlife isn"t quite what she expected when she"s forced to intern at a hotline for troubled teens. She may be dead, but the phone lines sure aren"t. So, when duty calls, Charlotte has to take the risk of a lifetime--or call it quits for good. Praise for ghostgirl: * Polished dark-and-deadpan humor, it"s a natural fit with Gen Y, too." --Publishers Weekly (starred review) * "[Tonya] beats out witty teen-speak like a punk-band drummer, keeping the narrative fast-paced and fun yet thought-provokingly heartwarming. Goofy, ghastly, intelligent, electrifying." --Kirkus (starred review) *"Tim Burton and Edgar Allan Poe devotees will die for this fantastic, phantasmal read." --School Library Journal (starred review) * "Readers with a taste for black humor and satire will feast on Hurley"s crisp, wise dialogue. Anticipate a well deserved cult following." --VOYA (starred review)
