Cold
by Mariko Tamaki
Reminded me a fair bit of The Lovely Bones, but more prosaic, less poetic. I wish the perspective of the ghostly dead kid added more to this book than an omniscient onlooking eye — the prospect of a naked, murdered, bullied queer boy looking over the proceedings dispassionately, incapable of feeling anything, is such a heavy and depressing conceit that it's really odd how little emotion or catharsis it brings into what's basically a junior murder mystery.
