Opening line: "Someone was looking at me, a disturbing sensation if you're dead." This is one of the best books I've read in a long time. And even though it's being touted as YA I'll be recommending it to all my friends. It's just a beautiful story of ill fated romance no matter what your age. A CER...
A Certain Slant of Light is both a pleasant surprise and...not. On one hand, I am incredibly impressed with Whitcomb's story. It is a paranormal love story, but of a very different nature than most. Helen and James, the couple in question, are ghosts left behind in the Light, having been dead for ne...

Someone was looking at me, a disturing sensation if you're dead. I was with my teacher, Mr Brown. As usual, we were in our classroom, that safe and wooden-walled box - the windows opening onto the grassy field to the west, the fading flag standing in the chalk dusty corner, the television set mounte...
***Note: this review presumes that you've read the book.*** The language and imagery in this book are excellent, and the premise is cool, if somewhat traditional: a young civil-war-era woman is trapped on earth as a ghost, haunting a series of individuals until she figures out her unresolved feeli...
What a dark, depressing but also, sweet book. Helen is a ghost wandering on Earth, going from one Host (she sticks to human until they die) to other.
