Life After Theft by Aprilynne Pike
Pub. Date: April 30, 2013
Goodreads says, "Moving to a new high school sucks. Especially a rich-kid private school. With uniforms. But nothing is worse than finding out the first girl you meet is dead. And a klepto. No one can see or hear Kimberlee except Jeff, so--in hopes of bringing an end to the snarkiest haunting in history--he agrees to help her complete her "unfinished business." But when the enmity between Kimberlee and Jeff's new crush, Sera, manages to continue posthumously, Jeff wonders if he's made the right choice. Clash meets sass in this uproarious modern-day retelling of Baroness Orczy's The Scarlet Pimpernel."
I loved Wings series, so I am looking forward to checking out Aprilynne Pike's latest novel. Plus, I LOVE that cover, although I am not quite sure what it has to do with the synopsis. What do you guys think?
I'm excited for this one too! I haven't read the Wings series, though, so this'll be my first time reading one of Pike's books. But that summary is definitely intriguing! And I agree, that cover is gorgeous!
