*Death and the Girl Next Door by Darynda Jones

Well folks she has done it again. I really love the Charlie Daniels series by this author but was a little hesitant to jump in the YA world. With an author like Darynda Jones why would I not jump in? From the first page to the last I was hooked. Quirky, laugh out loud funny and full of surprises. I read this on my ipad and just purchased Death and the Girl Next Door in paper back to give to my daughter to read, Yes it's that good. I can not wait till the next book comes out  "Death, Doom, and Detention".

 Death and the Girl Next Door (Darklight, #1)

Darynda Jones, author of The New York Times bestselling series that began with First Grave on the Right, brings us Death and the Girl Next Door, a thrilling Young Adult novel garnering high praise and early buzz from major authors

Ten years ago, Lorelei's parents disappeared without a trace.  Raised by her grandparents and leaning on the support of her best friends, Lorelei is finally beginning to accept the fact that her parents are never coming home.  For Lorelei, life goes on.

High school is not quite as painful as she thinks it will be, and things are as normal as they can be.  Until the day the school's designated loner, Cameron Lusk, begins to stalk her, turning up where she least expects it,  standing outside her house in the dark, night after night.  Things get even more complicated when a new guy—terrifying, tough, sexy Jared Kovach—comes to school.  Cameron and Jared instantly despise each other and Lorelei seems to be the reason for their animosity.  What does Jared know about her parents?  Why does Cameron tell Jared he can't have Lorelei?  And what will any of them do when Death comes knocking for real?  Thrilling, sassy, sexy, and inventive, Darynda Jones's first foray into the world of teens will leave readers eager for the next installment.
