Book Description
A funny, moving story from the AFTERLIFE world
Skye, a fourteen-year-old who can see ghosts, is feeling very stressed. Not only is the ghost of a sixteenth-century witch giving her fashion tips, but she’s struggling to settle into life with her aunt, and is developing a crush on the most unattainable boy in the school, Nico. When her aunt asks for help with a troubled teen ghost called Dontay, she’s glad of the distraction, and she’s soon facing a battle to keep her love life and her psychic life separate. As things get ever more complicated, it looks as though Dontay’s past might cost Skye her future.
Editorial Reviews
Review
“Tamsyn Murray’s second novel … is just as funny, spirited and moving as her first. I loved it so much … characters really captured my heart … the dark, brooding and gorgeous Nico … quite a few unexpected turns of plot … Tamsyn Murray is fast becoming one of my favourite authors and so I can’t wait to read her next offering, My So-Called Phantom Lovelife.” — solittletimeforbooks blog, September 2010
About the Author
Tamsyn Murray spent her childhood moving around a lot, from Truro in Cornwall to a village called Norham in Northumberland (which is probably as far from Cornwall as it’s possible to get and still be in England) and then on to the Lake District. At eighteen she left home to go to university in London and has been a Londoner ever since. When she’s not working or writing, she can be found singing and dancing with her local amateur dramatics society. Her first novel, MY SO-CALLED AFTERLIFE was highly commended by Booktrust Teenage Prize 2010 for its contribution to contemporary writing for teenagers.
