The Afterlife of Holly Chase
by Cynthia Hand
I read this book in one day, and I am not sure how. It was a weekend, but those are still very busy with children. I just kept picking it up every free second that I got. It was fast, fun, and different then so many other books I have been reading.
The Afterlife of Holly Chase is a fantasy contemporary and an adaptation of the Christmas Carol. Holly was visited by the ghosts of Christmas and utterly failed at turning around her life. So, she died and was brought on to be the ghost of Christmas past.
I adore the ending, especially how Holly explained it. I admit that I wish more books went that route, especially YA books. A great holiday read, if you are into Christmas inspired stories.
