Celeste struggles with finding her way from a dark past, until she gets a summer volunteer gig at the local historical fair. Enter: outrageous actors, dominating psychics, and ghosts stirred by a medium’s presence.

With the help of the psychic’s son - who isn’t at all what her dream date would look like but rather endearing all the same - Celeste uncovers secrets about the village left hidden among the dilapidated buildings.

Searching deeper will mean opening her heart - a part of her she’s locked up tight and been petrified of freeing.

It's a atrange story but overall quite entertainig (though a bit slow...) :)

Throughout most of the book I couldn't decide which is the focal point of the story: a history of two teenagers coming to terms with their traumas or a paranormal tale of two teenagers seeing ghosts and trying to help them "go peacefully to the other side"...
If the first one, some parts of the girls' stories felt a bit too shallow, too rushed and too easily solved; if the second, the "investigation" went too slowly and again too easily...
But, surprisingly, with all that said, I really liked the book and listened to it with real pleasure. I liked the idea of dual narration: Veronica's and Celeste's points of view allowed for different perspectives on things and seeing the secondary characters through the girls' eyes made them more real. I laso liked the background plots of the tragedy behind the ghost town and the Victorian Fair Veronica and Celeste join as employees.

I also liked the narration of the book by Ms Thomas; she voiced all the characters really well, both male and female, and her interpretation of the narrative parts was spot on.

Pretty good though a bit slow...

Two girls. Two troubled pasts. When they meet in therapy, Veronica isn’t sure what it is that draws her to mousey Celeste, but the two become instant friends. When they both get hired at a Victorian fair, they’re elated. Each of them has their reasons for wanting the job. However, neither of them know that the fair will help them recover from their past. The ghosts there will make sure of it.

Veronica wasn’t a likeable character, but she was spunky. She used her sharp tongue to hide her hurt. For a large majority of the book, I didn’t like her, but when her backstory was revealed, I felt bad for her. Celeste got the opposite feelings from me. I liked her immediately. She was quiet but kind, and when her past was revealed, it tied in well with the suspense of the fair grounds.

Veronica and Celeste are an unlikely pair, but as their friendship blossoms into something beautiful. Both girls see some thorough character development making this a fantastic friendship/hurt & comfort story.

Narration was fantastic.
