I recommend Croak. 
 ...shucks. that ending. so sad. :( 
 Croak is definitely a fun read. That's why I was shocked with the ending. I feel for Lex because it was so devastating. *sad, sad sigh* 
 Lex has her moments. Her violent streak was somehow hilarious, especially when it was intended to Uncle Mort and Driggs! And I did get her fury towards something she cannot do while having the power to do so. Oh, I so agree with you there, Lex. Why is life so sucky like that? 
 I apologize if my thoughts seemed incoherent at the moment. Two days after finishing Croak and I still cannot get over that senseless death, as Lex put it. I did not saw it coming. O_o 
 The "Nancy Drew" scenes were a riot, what with the predictable dialogues and outrageous reactions from Lex's friends regarding their investigation on the killings. 
 Croak managed to make a paranormal theme notorious and somber at the same time, and that's what made it special. Now, I am moving to the sequel, Scorch. But no more heartbreak please, Gina Damico.
