Want It Wednesday

A weekly posting of things I'm wishing for.



Give up the Ghost by Megan Crewe



Release Date: 9/15/09



About the Book: Cass McKenna much prefers ghosts to “breathers.” Ghosts are uncomplicated and dependable. They know the dirt on everybody . . . and Cass loves dirt.

She’s on a mission to expose the dirty secrets of all of the poseurs in her school. But when the vice president of the student council discovers her secret, Cass’s whole scheme hangs in the balance. Timwants her help to contact his recently deceased mother, but Cass is less than enthusiastic.


Kicking and screaming, Cass becomes increasingly entwined in Tim’s life. And she’s more surprised than anyone when she realizes that maybe some living people aren’t so bad if she’d only give them a chance.



GreenBeanTeenQueen Says: I LOVE this cover! I love how the ghost appears behind the girl and how you don't really notice it at first. Not only that, but the book sounds amazing, so I can't wait to read it!



Dust Bookshelves

My husband and I are in need of new bookshelves, so when I saw these on Korianne Speak's blog, I was in love. But for some reason my husband doesn't want to spend $2,000 on a cartoon bookshelf-I don't know why! :) They are super cute, but I'm wondering just how many books they'd actually hold.

    This book is on my wishlist. I love how it sounds and the cover is great too though I don't like the girl's expression much.

    That book is most definitely on my wishlist as are those bookshelves now. They are awesome, but $2000?! Too rich for my blood.

    I can't wait to read this book! I saw those bookshelves too, but I agree with your hubby - way too expensive. I just acquired a small bookshelf from my mum. Nothing like free furniture.

    Oh, I am in love with those bookshelves. If only was rich...*sigh* haha

    Give up the Ghost does look great. I love that the ghost isn't really obvious. Very cool.

GreenBeanTeenQueen Says: Have you ever had a book sit on your shelf that you've heard so much hype about? And you think that books sounds like it would be right up your alley, but you're in a reading slump and you're afraid to give it a try unless it fails? I knew Eleanor and Park sounded like my perfect book, but I was in such an after committee slump that I even though I knew this book would help, I just didn't want to be disappointed. I should have known better because Eleanor and Park was perfect and everything that I had hoped it wou
