imposed. But she also sees ghosts -- all her life, ghosts who have unfinished business come to her for help so they can move on. While she does want to help them, they create havoc on her social life and she can't explain why. Her latest ghost is a high school gymnast who can't remember much, but knows that key to moving on involves her best friend Jen. Kendall has to figure out who the dead girl is, who Jen is, and what she needs to tell Jen without freaking her out. Not easy, especially when your crush is starting to get really interested. Kendall's preoccupation with her clothing and how she arranges her hair is pretty funny. I think the target girls will really like this first in a series.

This book was fun. I read it during my lunch hours so it took a while but sometimes I had no reading time at all. The characters were fun and truly sounded their age. I hope to see Kendall and gang again soon.
