Haunting Joy (Haunting Joy, #1) by Lena Goldfinch

Synopsis:
Joy’s new dress has a secret – one with a little supernatural history, one that’s a little more than she expected.

It all starts one ordinary afternoon, as seventeen-year-old Joy tries on some thrift-store clothes her grandmother gave her. The little white dress fits perfectly. Trouble is, now it won’t leave her alone. Soon Joy is swept up in an extraordinary journey to help a ghost complete some unfinished business.

If only that didn’t involve Joy driving through dangerous intersections...

Or calling up her high-school crush, Nick...

Or getting stuck at a cemetery after dark.

Will Joy accept this ghostly challenge to be "more"? And just how far will she go to uncover the truth?

My Rating
-3.5/5-
A free copy was received in exchange for an honest review.
It's a really good book, It isn't very long less then 150 pages so it was pretty fast to read too. Joy feels like she is being haunted when she gets a new dress. She is and she helps a girl Beth -the girl who is haunting joy and the dress used to belong to- to tie up some loose ends and let everyone know what really happened to her. It was a good little book I liked it.
Even if the characters weren't really in depth and it just focus on this one little point.
Also Joy seems to go a little back and forth with her feelings like she wants to do something but then doesn't. Its not much but its there. Also Joy just excepts that she is being haunted right away. Which I found weird. But honestly other then those few little things it was a really good book I liked it.

I also see that there is a second book coming out next year and I hope to read that and see what that's about!!
