Books from the Backlog #208

 

Books from the Backlog is a fun way to feature some of those neglected books sitting on your bookshelf unread.  If you are anything like me, you might be surprised by some of the unread books hiding in your stacks. This is a fun meme hosted by Carole's Random Life in Books!

Mila Flores and her best friend Riley have always been inseparable. There's not much excitement in their small town of Cross Creek, so Mila and Riley make their own fun, devoting most of their time to Riley's favorite activity: amateur witchcraft.

So when Riley and two Fairmont Academy mean girls die under suspicious circumstances, Mila refuses to believe everyone's explanation that her BFF was involved in a suicide pact. Instead, armed with a tube of lip gloss and an ancient grimoire, Mila does the unthinkable to uncover the truth: she brings the girls back to life.

Unfortunately, Riley, June, and Dayton have no recollection of their murders, but they do have unfinished business to attend to. Now, with only seven days until the spell wears off and the girls return to their graves, Mila must wrangle the distracted group of undead teens and work fast to discover their murderer...before the killer strikes again.

I added Lily Anderson's Undead Girl Gang to my TBR pile in July of 2018...or I remembered to add it to my Goodreads then since it was a May 2018 release. You never know with me, lol. I remembered thinking this one sounded like fun! It was paranormally, it had some mystery going on and it seemed like a light-hearted read too. I mean, yes, there's murder mystery, but with the various paranormal books I've read, some have definitely had darker themes with murder, but with this fun looking cover, I was definitely getting more lighter vibes with this one. Naturally, I still want to give it a read!
