The Awakening by Marley Gibson


Kendall Moorehead never wanted to move to Raddison, Georgia aka Middle of Nowhere. Miles from her hometown Chicago, she struggles with a new town,new school, and making new friends. Just when things are looking up, Kendall starts to hear voices and have vivid dreams of strangers. Through a series of events Kendall learns she's experiencing a physic awakening, and with the help of her friends begins a ghost hunting team. Thus the Ghost Huntresses are born and the girls soon become the talk of the town. Fortunately most of its positive feedback with the occasional negative comments like from Kendall's mother and the hunky golden boy Jason Tillson. However when the town hall ,and most importantly Kendall's dad, are in danger of a violent ghost only the Ghost Huntresses can solve the case.

Okay...my review of "The Awakening" is of mixed feelings. Three cheers for the paranormal action and budding romance. Two boos for the word style and drawn-out pace. Fellow book addicts? If you enjoy the paranormal and a less professional word style "The Awakening" is for you. Kendall is an amusing character with interesting insight, however I felt the word style left more to be desired. Upon reading the first paragraph I can assure you that you'll be sucked in. As you read more though you'll notice, at least I felt, the book becomes more drawn-out and lengthy in terms of getting from situation A to situation B. All in all "The Awakening" is fun read for the summer that'll keep you lol'ing.

Cheers:3
Boos:2
Result:Good read
