Wavering

by Virginia Frazier

Sixteen-year-old Joy Wright is far from naive, but more inexperienced than most girls her age. She has never been kissed, nor felt the throes of young love. After Joy's middle-aged father suffers a fatal heart attack, she and her mother move to Wavering, Illinois, in hopes of rekindling some form of a relationship with the grandparents who disowned her mother two decades ago. In this small country town of six thousand, Joy learns to embrace the changes that come with womanhood, discovers that she bears a striking resemblance to a dead woman who is twenty years her senior, and meets Alec, a mysterious boy from school, whose own family life will become entangled with hers in ways she never imagined possible.(less)

Genre: Mystery

Joy Wright is a 16 year old girl that move to Wavering, Illinois with her mother. They are hoping to reconnect with Joy's grandparents, that disowned her mother over 20 years ago. While in Wavering, Joy meets and befriends a boy named Alec, who is a senior in high school, and who also happens to be extremely handsome. As Joy and Alec's relationship continues to grow, Joy begins to realize that maybe Alec isn't the person she thought he was. With two unsolved murders in the town. Joy begins to see a connection between herself and the two dead women. Will she be able to figure out who the killer is and what she has to do with it all before she becomes the third victim?
Virginia Frazier does an excellent job of laying out the storyline, drawing the reader into the characters, and making you want to figure out what in the world is going on. She is able to mix in realistic teen issues that make it easier for teens today to understand what is going on in her life.

It was great. All my friends and I read it within a few days. Any book that makes me do that has to be good.

It seems so interesting and you are not sure whether it has to do with the supernatural or there is some other sort of secret at work.
I think I will be picking it up soon. :)
