Awareness by Rowan Shannigan


Waking in the hospital after a car accident nearly claims her life is a serious jolt to Rebecca, a sixteen-year-old with a promising future. Learning she has been there for over a week is pretty nerve-wracking as well. But that isn’t what really bothers her. No, what’s really bothering her is her newfound ability to see shadows no one else around her can see, and hearing voices no one else can hear. Then, the ghost of a little boy materializes in the middle of her room, walks right up to her and starts talking. TO HER! In front of her mother, no less.

Now she has to re-learn everything she once believed to be true about the world she lives in, and what is real in that world is becoming a pretty daunting task to face. Because ghosts she can see and hear are not the only ones popping out of the woodwork; let’s just say . . . Elves and Angels, demons and Faeries, oh my! And would someone please just answer one question? What’s a girl supposed to do for a good night’s sleep?
