Dead Gorgeous

by Malorie Blackman

Nova is bored and discontented, largely ignored by her harrassed, overworked parents, and jealous of her older sister's good looks. When she meets handsome Liam, she can't believe her luck, but then she discovers that he is not quite like other boys...

In this unusual ghost story, Malorie Blackman unfolds a many-layered tale about the challenges of adolescence, family relationships and sibling rivalry. Ultimately, however, this is a hopeful story about overcoming feelings of isolation and loneliness.
