Hold Me Closer, Necromancer by Lish McBride


Kendra's comments: 

A teen boy who has always felt like an outsider with regards to his life finds out by accident that he is in fact a necromancer with powers that allow him to raise the dead. On top of that bombshell, he also finds out that the head evil necromancer of Seattle is out to get him. It seems like a goofy premise, and it is. The ridiculousness of the storyline is what makes this book work, however. It had enough humor wove through which kept the creepy factor in check. There are some loose ends that annoy me because they aren't tied up in a neat bow at the end, but overall the story is a catching tale that I would suggest to anyone wanting a light teen fiction read.
