After Jasmine‘s father dies in an accident, Jasmine is worried she‘s haunted. There are strange happenings & mysterious sounds. It‘s not until she meets The Gay Supernatural Alliance that she starts to feel understood.

I don‘t think I have words for this. The childhood fear of not fitting in, that joy at finally making friends, the overwhelming grief after losing an important family member. This had everything. & a perfect narrator.🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗

Jasmine & her mom move a lot. Its difficult to make friends in middle school when you‘re always the new girl.

This story was simply delightful.

The characters are mostly all LGBTQ.

Jasmine joins her new school‘s GSA club. This is where she meets 2 friends, the only other members of the Gay Strait Alliance. The 2 other members have renamed GSA, the Gay Supernatural Alliance. The 3 friends have a connection, the supernatural.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2 👇🏻

Twainy Together they will find answers to mysteries both personal & external.

There were so many lessons shown in the actions of the 3. Such a cozy fun story with a side of the supernatural.

A wonderful book with so many positive vibes. Great audiobook.
