Reading Level: Young Adult
(4 out of 5)
What could be worse than getting dumped via text message? Calla thought that was the worst thing that could happen to her but she was wrong. Not long after getting dumped she finds her mother dead. Calla's life as she knew it is over. Her father is a professor and is scheduled to do a sabbatical in California. While her dad is in California getting things ready for them Calla goes to spend the summer with her grandmother Odelia in Lily Dale. To Calla's shock Lily Dale is full of psychics including her grandmother. As Calla gets to know Lily Dale and the people who live there unusual things start happening to her. She starts seeing ghosts and having visions. Is she like her grandmother and will she ever uncover who her mother really was. The only way to uncover family secrets is to stay.
I really liked this book but it read like a first chapter. What I mean by that is it felt like I was only getting the beginning of the story not the middle or the end. That could be because there are three other books that follow. Lily Dale: Believing, Lily Dale: Connecting, and Lily Dale: Discovering. The next two books are out already but Lily Dale: Discovering will be out in October 2009.
I can't wait to start reading the next book.
