A tender, witty ghost story and an exciting new direction for the internationally bestselling author of Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen.
Celeste and Sorrel, Reuben and Orlando: high school friends who hang out together all the time. When Sorrel gets hit by a car one rainy night, its not surprising the others fall apart in various ways. But its not just grief theyre struggling with its parents. Unfair, demanding, challenging parents who are, quite frankly, making their lives a misery. Thats why Sorrel decides shes not going to be properly dead till shes sorted out her friends' lives and can leave them with a clearer sense of what they want out of life. From the bestselling author of Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen, this is a tender comedic ghost story which touches on some important issues, like bullying, coming out, and the life-denying way the old want to live through the young and impose their failures on them. Its about the importance of being the person you want to be or else, being miserable.
