The Dead Girls Detective Agency
The Dead Girls Detective Agency | Suzy Cox
10 posts | 7 read | 4 to read
Pop quiz: What would you do if you had to solve your own murder to get anywhere in death? Maybe if I hadn't slept through my alarm, slammed into Kristin—my high school's reigning mean girl—or stepped in a puddle, destroying my mom's new suede DVF boots (which I borrowed without asking), I wouldn't have been in the wrong place at the wrong time, and I wouldn't have been pushed in front of that arriving train. But I did, and I was. When I came to, I was informed by a group of girls that I'm dead. And that because I died under mysterious circumstances, I can't pass straight over to the Other Side. But at least I'm not alone. Meet the Dead Girls Detective Agency: Nancy, Lorna, and Tess—not to mention Edison, the really cute if slightly hostile dead boy. Apparently, the only way out of this limbo is to figure out who killed me, or I'll have to spend eternity playing Nancy Drew. Considering I was fairly invisible in life, who could hate me enough to want me dead? And what if my murderer is someone I never would have suspected?

A fast and entertaining read. Some of the dialogue and characters were a little too tween, but a fun book to break me out of a reading slump.

Hoping to break out of my reading slump with this current read. Reminds me of a mix between Meg Cabot's humor and the soapy silliness of Pretty Little Liars.

Bad boy, nice guy, flirt: Edison was one big sandwich of contradiction, with a side order of WTF?

light haunting isn‘t working. I think it‘s time we went to Dead-Com Two.

people (well, the decent ones) remember you way more favorably when you‘re not around to remind them of the truth.

What would you do if you only had one day left to live?

A unique YA murder mystery that doesn't take itself too seriously and is not too predictable. Well-written but not overly dense. A perfect cutesy easy read that isn't like anything else!

Just starting this one. So far, so good. Reminds me a lot of Cabot's Mediator series which is great (I rarely read entire series, but loved every last one of the Mediator ones!). Short, mindless, entertaining YA is just what I need right now.
