Description

Hi, I'm Alexis Delaney. I'm your average 17-year-old girl. Except I can see the dead. And talk to the dead. And push them away and, well, help them move on.

So...okay, I'm not your average 17-year-old girl.

For years I've been struggling to survive the souls still roaming around. The shitheads always seem to find me. Moving from town to town every few months never helped either. More dead just always find me. But things are changing for me now. I'm moving in with my uncle Rory and cousin Tara. I'm finally going to be able to do normal teenage stuff I've been missing out on. Right?

Well, if this one bitch of a ghost could leave me alone on campus that would be great. Especially since I haven't told my new friends about my abilities. Can you believe this? Five good-looking guys practically adopt me on my first day of school and I still think they're a bit nuts for it. Now if I can only keep my life with the dead from mixing with my normal life everything would be great. Yeah...I don't see that happening either. But I'm going to give it a shot.

Who knows? It might work.

Fantastic!

I never thought I'd be able to get into audiobooks, but with how much I love the Kindle version of these books I shouldn't have been surprised. It was a pleasure to be able to listen to this book while working out, walking to work, or even just trying to fall asleep. Thee changed boys voices were fantastic, I am so sorry for the narrator's voice as I imagine that would have been a little bit hard on her throat, but I enjoyed it! thank you to everyone who put this together, I'm about to go buy the next one.

Raven Boys Wannabe

This was difficult to finish. Needs more about the dead, less about the boys. I expected more ghosts. Nope. I felt like I was reading a Raven Boys fan fiction that was dying. Sorry, but it would have been better to bring a love affair I into it. That or gee, more ghosts.

Great

when I started this series, I expected to only read a few books but I am now on book 5 and as absorbed as the first. it is a slow burn but the actual story is captivating. the character's are so good. I am invested.
There are few things that kind of get to me but just a little and not enough to put the book down. I will write another review after the last book.

Maybe if you’re a teenager

This book was personally not it. Narrator was pretty robotic at times, which i can get passed if the story is good. The female lead was a pick-me girl who called people hunny and sweetie. After one week all the guys would die for her. The conversations were meant to be funny I think? But they just felt awkward and unnatural. This book was listed as reverse harem on good reads and maybe it will get there, but it felt like something written for pre-teens.

Light entertainment

The story and characters in this novel remind me strongly of Japanese manga and anime series - a perky, somewhat silly female lead who is inexplicably the only one who can save the world from vague, dark threat; the inverted harem of gorgeous boys who fawn over said character; convenient opportunities for romantic setups (no parental authority, permissive uncle who allows a teeenage girl to spend unlimited amount of time, including sleep overs, with a group of teenage boys), yet everything remains relatively innocent and childlike between all the main characters. The psychic plot is barely developed and most of the narration is dedicated to describe every single aspect of each gorgeous character, the clothes they wear, and cute funny interactions among them. If you want very light reading to pass the time, or to listen in the background while doing something else (like I did) this is the YA novel for you.

Interesting to say the least....

Performance wise I would say Kris Koscheski, and Carla Mercer-Meyer did an excellent job on all the narration.
As far as the story.... there are some inconsistencies. Lack of parental guidance. Why I found this in romance.... idk. If there’s romance it’s a slow burn. Like extremely slow. There’s only phone conversation, and the mentioning of feelings. Sex, zero. Kissing unless I blinked, zero. So if your looking for it, it ain’t here. It’s still an interesting story though. I want to know where this will lead.

Good storytelling, WAY too many F-bombs

The story line was good, but the way the characters lived their lives is unrealistic and wow was there a lot of f-bombs. The author needs to enlarge her vocabulary.

Love the Narrator...But Story...ehh

Im completely confused as to how this book got such a high rating by so many. I personally couldn't even finish this book. The book's story line drags and seem to be going anywhere. Several hrs into the book and still have no idea what the plot is???? Like how many nose bleeds is she going 2have? I even looked at the summary for the others books in this series (there like 5 more) & it read like more of the same.

Slow... but just can't stop listening...

This series was hard for me at first because of how slow it is to get to the plot... but for some reason, I just can't stop listening to it! I NEED to know what happens next. I love the dynamic between Lexi and the guys and I would love to see where this story ends up.

I am on my second listen of this series because I fell in love with these guys and their friendship with Lexi and I am waiting for the next book to come out on audio haha.

If you don't mind a wait to get to the goods, then I recommend this series. it's a good listen!

Good, but...

I enjoyed this over all. I saw badly want Lexi and zeke to get together! But I have a feeling I’ll not be getting that wish. I enjoyed her strong but light hearted attitude.

However, I do not get girls in books sometimes. I don’t get the devastation of “destroying a soul” when that soup REPEATEDLY TRIED TO KILL 6 PEOPLE. Like it’s great if it can be avoided, but you can’t just let it go around killing people either.

ZERO romance, YOUNG adult (12-15?) book

There was absolutely nothing in this book to land it in the romance section of audible. The most romantic thing was a few flirty texts between teenagers, that is it.

The book mainly focuses on the main characters relationship for her 5 guy friends and how "lovingly controlling" they are over her. The author spends 20 minutes on a scene on why she can't have potato chips an why the boys hide them for her for her own good. And how they're always there to protect her from everything from school bullies or the previously mentioned potato chips. It was EXTREMELY weird to listen to.

I would guess that approximately 10% of this book was about the dead she deals with, and the rest was about her complicated relationship with 5 guy friends. This book was written for what I can only assume to be a very specific group of very young adults ages 12-15?

I absolutely cannot recommend this to anyone, except perhaps my niece who just turned 12, but even then, she cares more about the story than the minutiae of this girl's friendships. Wish I could give it zero stars for wasting my time hoping for more to happen.
