First Impressions (A Shadow Maven Paranormal)
by Pauline Creeden
Genre: YA Paranormal, Coming of Age, Teen Sci Fi
Chira Kelly thought she didn’t need anyone…until she met Ben.
Because of one ugly rumor, Chira lives as an outcast at her school. Which is fine with her, because she works better alone. Always has, always will. And at least she has her one and only true friend, Tasha. When Tasha insists that they join a group to visit a possibly haunted abandoned old schoolhouse, she's wary, but joins her friend. Because of that decision, their lives are in jeopardy as a malevolent spirit targets the group. Tragedies and accidents pick them off one by one, and Chira finds herself drawn to the one person who can see the truth. But can he protect her?
My Review:
First
Impression (Shadow Maven
#1)
Overall Rating **** Stars
I
thought this was a great YA paranormal book. It was really fast paced and was
able to read it in about four hours. It was really well written. This is the
first book I have read from this author and I will be reading more from her.
Chira is a very strong character, who meets Ben. They have fantastic chemistry.
He best friend was in a bad accident who is now in a coma. Chira has so much
going on around her. Thankfully Ben is right there with her. I do recommend
this book.
