The Summoning - Kelley Armstrong

The Summoning - Kelley Armstrong

Summary - My name is Chloe Saunders and my life will never be the same again.
All I wanted was to make friends, meet boys, and keep on being ordinary. I don't even know what that means anymore. It all started on the day that I saw my first ghost- and the ghost saw me.
Now there are ghosts everywhere and they won't leave me alone. To top it all off, I somehow got myself locked up in Lyle House, a "special home" for troubled teens. Yet the home isn't what it seems. Don't tell anyone, but I think there might be more to my housemates than meets the eye. The question is, whose side are they on? It's up to me to figure out the dangerous secrets behind Lyle House.... before its skeletons come back to haunt me.

My thoughts - I cant believe its done!! I just finished it like two minutes ago and I have to know what happens next. I have so many hunches and I need to know whether they are right or not! For those of you who have read this, did you see that coming?? Ok so about what I thought about the writing and so forth. The writing was amazing, very well written, easy to understand, and definitely keeps your interest. The characters are amazing! There are still some things about the story though, that I need answered. Mostly the history, there is something missing, but I am sure that will all be answered in the next book if not the third. The plot was very original. When I first read the description, I thought it was just going to be about a girl who saw ghost and that would be it, just ghosts. Well, Kelley Armstrong went beyond that. I think that this has to be one of my favorite books. I am a big, BIG, vampire fenatic but this book finally got me away from that. I cannot stress enough how amazing I thought this book was. I am going to be ranting to my dad for days about it! Absolutely Incredible and a must read!
