The Summoning: A Supernatural Book


What is the supernatural? Vampires werewolves and ghosts? Some supernaturals are real. Some might be explained as medical conditions. If you enjoy the supernatural, The Summoning, by Kelly Armstrong, is a book you need to read.
Chloe Saunders is a normal teen at her Fine Arts school. No one pays much attention to her; she is not hated and is not liked. Then she starts her very first period she starts seeing the imosible: Ghosts. Right after a insident at school , which put a label on her, schizophrenia, she gets shipped off to the Lyle House for mentally disturbed teens. Chloe finds out the real truth about this house, and the truth might haunt her for the rest of her life... Well, i might be exaggerating, but this is a really cool book.
Finally I will tell you how the book is, in my opinion and others. In my opinion it is great. The first person view of Chloe's world never revels secrets unless they are told directly, and believe me, their is a lot of secrets. Even some of the questions that are raised in the first book is only answered in the second book, The Awakening.
This book is "suspenseful, well-written, and engaging" (VOYA).
Kurtis Reviews said, "Teen readers might scream loud enough to raise the dead."
If you don't get that then the book will give you the answer. I thought they mean is that all the horror, betrayal, and a little romance will drive you crazy to get the next book.
