    Dead people are ruining Kat’s life.

    Seventh grade is hard enough, but when your mom is a medium and calls up spirits that then invade the house, inviting
    people over and trying to make friends is not easy.

    Things get worse when Kat herself starts to see spirits. She doesn’t want to be a medium and isn’t sure she’s cut out
    for communicating with the dead. Plus, Kat’s afraid that her family’s dark secret will jeopardize her newfound
    friendship with Jac, the new girl at school.

    When the spirit of former student, Suzanne Bennis, appears to Kat in the school library seeking her help, Kat can’t
    ignore her powers any longer. Will Kat be able to help Suzanne? And will Jac stay with her or think her new friend is
    crazy?

    This was such a fun read! Ghosts and mystery take center stage of the story, but there is also the typical middle
    school drama of popular crowds and mean girls. The friendship between Kat and Jac is what makes this story. Kat is
    funny as a reluctant medium and her inner thoughts about life and school made me laugh out loud. Jac is full of spunk
    and everyone should have a best friend like her.

    Perfect for fans wanting a middle school story with a paranormal twist, SCHOOL SPIRIT is the first in the
    SUDDENLY SUPERNATURAL series.
