When I read the synopsis I thought, wow that sounds interesting and I wasn't wrong.
I really enjoyed this book, it had a good pace, action, humor and romance. Everything I enjoy in a good book.
I really liked Holly, she is smart, witty, strong and doesn't back down, on top she loves comic books. Sometimes I felt a little sad for her, of what all she has to endure and go through with her mom. But she is feisty.

This book was great. I have not found too many book about Shamans and this book was unique because Holly is a teenager. She trying to help her mom pay the bills. While she helps her friends from school life without ghosts haunting their lives. I enjoyed the book and think you should give this book a try for sure. * I was given this book in exchange for an honest review from the Lovers of Paranormal group on Goodreads*

I won this book way way way back during the big YA spring fling!!!
THIS BOOK IS EVERYTHING!!!! There it is. It's out.
No, but seriously.
I haven't read a book before that was about spirits and shamans, so I wasn't entirely sure what to expect. It was one hell of a ride but it was all kinds of amazing.
I love the story. A highschool girl banishes fake spirits to earn money, cause her mom's soul is stuck in the Borderland, and now she has to pay the bills and takes care of everything, while figuring out how to get her mom back. And then real spirits show up in people's houses and that's only the start of all the problems that are coming her way.
I LOVE the characters. Holly, what a wonderful person. She has the weight of the world on her shoulders but she's so fierce and strong. Love her. Also her friend Laura, amazing. I love the friendship between them, that's just so special. Nathan is also a really great character. What I loved about the book was that the relationship between him and Holly didn't happen so quickly. They obviously care about each other but after a few days together they don't throw around the words of undying love for each other. Thank goodness.
The whole story developed really fast, there were a lot of things happening and not many dull moments, something I really enjoyed. The last few chapters made me really nervous, cause the clock was ticking and they still had so many problems and no plans and they needed to do so much for everything to turn out okay. But I'm happy with the way it ended and I can't wait to read the second book. I feel like with the way things are set up in the first book, the second book will be really exciting and will probably also make me really nervous.

I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review (Lovers of Paranormal). Holly is a shaman. Her mother is a shaman. Her mother was cursed by another shaman and is now between worlds with not much time left. She never wanted to teach her daughter all the spells and stuff from the shaman world because it is too dangerous, but now Holly is her only hope. Meanwhile, people are reporting spirits in their houses and they are asking Holly (The Queen of Weird) for help. Can she save everyone? Read it and find out! I enjoyed this book and look forward to the next one.

Bone Dry is such a surprisingly delightful read! I thought I'd grown out of my obsession with young adult, especially those books set in the real world with characters attending high school. But this book proved me wrong.
With shades of Veronica Mars mixed with an intriguing and unique magic system, Bone Dry sucked me in and kept me flipping pages faster and faster. How could I not want to read about a heroine trying to save her mother...while conning high school friends to pay the bills? Time to download book two!
