Synopsis

A New York Times bestseller The Haunting of Sunshine Girl, in active development for television by The Weinstein Company, a hit paranormal YA series based on the wildly popular YouTube channel about an “adorkable” teenager living in a haunted house. Shortly after her sixteenth birthday, Sunshine Griffith and her mother Kat move from sunny Austin, Texas, to the rain-drenched town of Ridgemont, Washington. Though Sunshine is adopted, she and her mother have always been close, sharing a special bond filled with laughter and inside jokes. But from the moment they arrive, Sunshine feels her world darken with an eeriness she cannot place. And even if Kat doesn’t recognize it, Sunshine knows that something about their new house is just … creepy. In the days that follow, things only get stranger. Sunshine is followed around the house by an icy breeze, phantom wind slams her bedroom door shut, and eventually, the laughter Sunshine hears on her first night evolves into sobs. She can hardly believe it, but as the spirits haunting her house become more frightening—and it becomes clear that Kat is in danger—Sunshine must accept what she is, pass the test before her, and save her mother from a fate worse than death.

Despite the ghostly presences which follow our heroine, I wasn't sure how creepy this was; still, I found McKenzie's The Haunting of Sunshine Girl a page-turner. Sunshine is likable, has a quirky personality and apparently is a Luiseach, beings who aren't exactly human, but have the ability to help......more

The first third of this book was SO creepy I loved it! A great haunting story in the vein of the movie 'Paranormal Activity'. I liked the main character Sunshine and the relationship with her mother, especially as it changed during the haunting. The guy/love interest (because it's YA, nobody can las......more

Rating: 2.75 "Creeptastic" (quote from the book) Stars Review: to come--in short, NOT really scary, and the twists and turns became too involved, and at that point, I became a casual observer, rather than a participant, in this "horror story".......more

I have to thank Weinstein Books and Perseus Books for sending me an ARC of this title. I didn't know anything about the YouTube Channel before I found out about this book.
