From Thin Air by Lynn Seresin, Chapter Twenty-Nine
The world of electronic devices was one of the most daunting challenges I faced in adapting to life on this place - and they seemed to be everywhere, beeping, whirring, vibrating, telling people what to do and when to do it, or just offering a diversion from boredom. Humans seemed virtually incapable of living without them.
Thin Air (Thin Air Saga, Book One) by Lynn Seresin
Synopsis From Goodreads:
Alice Ayre is no ordinary teenager. She took her first name from a statue in Central Park, pulled her last name out of the air (literally), and she’s actually almost a thousand years old. In fact, the only “ordinary” thing about Alice is that she’s in love.
Alice was a sylphid—a winged air spirit—when she spotted Daniel Field camping in the Adirondacks and lost her heart to the handsome NYU student. Intangible to the human senses, her only hope of winning his heart resides in becoming mortal, even though transmutation is forbidden by Paralda, ruler of the air. Risking punishment, however, seems a small price to pay for a chance at true happiness.
Enraged over Alice’s departure, Paralda has sent transmuted assassins to pursue her into the human world. Alone with her secret–who would believe her?—Alice must elude a nameless, faceless enemy sworn to destroy the happy, new life she’s risked so much to achieve.
Loving this book! I've so almost finished, and it's amazing so far! Keep an eye out for my posts, and see a run down on the blog tour: here.
From Legend of Witchtrot Road by E.J. Stevens, Chapter Two, Page 19
It was amazing what some tomato sauce and melted cheese could accomplish. If I were writing a goth girl's guide to making peace, I'd have an entire chapter on pizza, the ultimate tool for conflict resolution. Peace-zah?

Oh, how I adore this series! I have no idea how I'm going to live without the wacky Yuki and her brilliant friends when I finish this book! Seriously, if you only ever read one ghost series, make it this one!!
