OLDER FICTION
Brett, Cathy

Scarlett Dedd

(4) YA Food poisoning takes a deadly turn when Scarlett accidentally offs herself (and her family) trying to avoid an upcoming school trip. She just can't do anything right, including killing her friends so they can join her in the afterlife. This grim yet humorous Gothic tale relies heavily on gimmicky design elements: ghostly blog posts, comic-like illustrations, and variable fonts and layouts.
