I'm reading a novel called Dead Girls Don't Write Letters by Gail Giles. I really enjoyed this novel so far because it's kind of like a ghost mystery...and I think that's a neat way to express the book. In this novel, Sunny has a hard life to face now that her sister, Jazz is gone. This book takes place in the present day and refers to the horrific death of Jazz. Jazz was killed in an apartment fire in New York where she lived. The only thing is that it's been 4 months and all of a sudden Sunny and her family receive a letter in the mail from Jazz. How can that be? She's dead. Or is she? Sunny lives with her mother in a farmhouse in Texas. But the letter wasn't the only strange thing...a few weeks later someone shows up at their home...is it Jazz? Sunny is the main character that's around the age of 15. Right now things are tuff for her because she's having a hard time coping with the loss of Jazz. Sunny is a little lost and confused by the cause of her sister's death. Now she's determined to find out what happened and who did it. Sunny also becomes sort of attached to this stranger who comes to her house...and later when reality hits her she tells herself that all of her thought processing at first glance is false. Right now, for Sunny, her life is all confusing and fuzzy to her, and far from reality. Or what it should be. "From a distance she looked like Jazz. But the face was all wrong. She was prettier than Jazz, her skin a little softer, her lashes a little longer and darker. Jazz was pretty; this girl was stunning. Her face held a hint of vulnerability that my sister's never had. Reaching out, Not Jazz took mom's hands in her own pressing them to her cheeks, " (Page:33) After being away for so long I never notice the details I should about people.
