For all the weirdo girlies who like a little female rage, as a treat." -- Hey YA by BookRiot "Debut author Crowley combines Stephen King's Pet Sematary with Courtney Summers's Sadie in this supernatural thriller. . . . Sardonic first-person narration by rough-around-the-edges Annie is further enhanced by snappy repartee, both of which elevate a plot that covers well-trod ground to a surprising and earned conclusion." -- Publishers Weekly "Horror-fueled adventure. . . . The visceral language in Crowley's debut punctuates the nonstop action and brings the eerie supernatural scenes to life." -- Kirkus Reviews, "A wholly original exploration of what it means to be a modern female, with a depth of rage that echoes into the afterlife." -- Mindy McGinnis , Edgar Award-winning author of Female of the SpeciesNumber of Pages:304 PagesGenre:Juvenile Fiction, Young Adult FictionGrade From:Ninth GradeTopic:Mysteries & Detective Stories, General, Girls & WomenISBN-10:1368099904Publisher:Disney Publishing WorldwideLC Classification Number:PZ7.1.C7725He 2024Format:HardcoverLanguage:EnglishPublication Year:2024brand:Disney Publishing WorldwideLCCN:2023-017700Synopsis:Murdered bad girl Annie Lane is back from the grave and hellbent on revenge . . . she just has to figure out who killed her.
