A Certain Slant of Light
by Laura Whitcomb
Helen is not your typical young adult narrator. For one thing, she’s 28. At least, she was when she died 130 years ago. She’s gotten used to her new existance, cleaving to host after host in order to avoid being drawn back into her personal hell. But then a boy looks at her. A living boy. One of the Quick. His story will change hers forever, as she’s drawn into a human host and must confront the life that has kept her away from her final rest.
