Beth Fasier should have noticed all the signs that were around her. She should have trusted her gut that something was
wrong, but instead she just ignored it.

Beginning her junior year, Beth had everything she had worked for. From the possibility of being valedictorian of her class
to getting closer to being able to go to school at NYU. But if only Beth hadn’t worked so hard, then maybe, just maybe,
she wouldn’t be where she is today.

It all began when Beth decided to try out for the drill team, only to make her activities seem well-rounded. Unfortunately,
Beth didn’t make it since Tamara, a very popular cheerleader, told the coach to not let Beth on the team. Tamara had a
different motive -- she wanted Beth to be on the cheerleader squad. Right then Beth should have known that something
was wrong, but instead, when hearing that hottie Stephen Wills was going to be at one of the cheer practices, Beth knew
she had to go.  After all, it
is Stephen Wills.

Turns out Stephen had asked Tamara to put Beth on the team, since he’s had his eye on her for awhile. Of course, Beth
was flattered, and when Stephen asked her out on a date Beth just couldn’t say no. But when the most popular guy asks
someone like Beth out on a date, she should have known that something was just not right.

It was too late for Beth, though, since on her date, Stephen bites Beth -- making her a fellow member of the undead.

Beth’s life is over as she knows it, until her academic enemy, Clayton, tell hers that there is a possible chance for her to
turn back into her usual self. But can Beth muster up the strength to actually do it?

Known for her books on the paranormal, Julie Kenner puts her own twist on what seems to be a hot topic in most teen
novels, vampires. THE GOOD GHOULS’ GUIDE TO GETTING EVEN may seem like another typical vampire story,
but as the book gets going, readers will begin to notice that this novel is different from the rest of the pack. Fans of the
undead will not be disappointed in Julie Kenner’s new novel. Be sure to watch out for the sequel, GOOD GHOULS DO,
which releases in October.
