'I knew the boy was different when I saw him walk on water'. That has to be one of the best opening lines I've read in a while and immediately I wanted to sit down, curl up and begin reading. I'm a huge fan of Tamsyn and her young adult paranormal novels. This is the third one I've read and the second time I've come into contact with Skye Thackery.
Skye Thackery is no ordinary teenager. She can see and communicate with ghosts. After the heartache of a failed relationship in the previous story, Skye's hormones are raging and when she finds Owen, her feelings are misguided. Can she kiss him? And surely she can't call a ghost her boyfriend? But worse is to come when she realises the danger that Owen is in. Skye sets out to help him, putting herself into danger too.
I find Tamsyn's books so unbelievably believable. The world that she creates and the characters she portrays are exceptional. Technically speaking, this is a young adult novel, but there are so many one liners and fantastic ideas that even, ahem, forty somethings can enjoy this series. It's fun, yet dark and dangerous in places. Tamysn includes so many things I never had as a teenager but are clearly part of today's world, which gives it a current spin, such as XBox, Itunes and Facebook. The ending was superb, full of atmosphere, terror and excitement. The final chapter put my mind at rest perfectly - just how a good book should be. I'm already looking forward to my next fix.

I love this series! They are so much fun to read. I find myself picking them up and not putting them down until I've finished.
We catch up with Skye shortly after the events of My So Called Haunting. When Skye and her friends have an accident on the lake and almost drown, it is a ghost that helps Skye save her best friend. Befriending him, and finding herself very attracted to him she tries to help him sort out what is keeping him here so he can move on. On top of that Nico seems determined to get back into Skye's life, but can she ever trust him again?
Skye is such an awesome character and I love spending time with her. She so honest and sweet that I instantly like her and enjoy spending time with her. I also love how she interacts with Celestine and Jeremy - such a typical teenager in that respect. And I adore Mary. There is one scene involving her that almost made me choke it made me laugh so hard - it's the one where Skye asks her to speak English for once and ... well, let's just say she hits the nail on the head so to speak!
I'm glad Nico's back. I adored him in the last installment - at least until the scene in the cemetery and then I had no idea what to think of him. Like Skye I was completely torn. I was really glad to see him back and I really like the direction his story is taking.
I can't praise this series highly enough. As I said they are such great fun to read and they always leave me wanting more. I hope there are many more to come! On a side note, can I just say that I love the new cover designs - they really capture the feel of the books.

I was lucky enough to meet Tamsyn Murray at Caroline Smailes' Like Bees To Honey London launch, it was in the back of my mind to have a look at her books. After breaking my leg in December I was stuck at home and downloaded the Kindle App for my Android Phone. One of the first books I downloaded was My So Called Afterlife, how can you resist a book with the opening line "I knew it was time to move on when a tramp peed on my Uggs..." I read it in one sitting (well more propped up in bed) and straight after downloaded My So-Called Haunting.
With the third book in the series, a point at which some writers seem to struggle to keep up the momentum Tamsyn still managed to exceed my expectations bringing new twists and surprises on every new page. I found this just as hard to put down as the two previous books and just as eager for the next part (please someone tell me there will be another part?!).
It's a long time since I've been a teenager but I still loved this book - it's well worth a read!
