Paranormalcy by Kiersten White


Summary
Evie’s always thought of herself as a normal teenager, even though she works for the International Paranormal Containment Agency, she’s falling for a shape-shifter, and she’s the only one who can see through glamours.
But now Evie's dreams are filled with haunting voices and cryptic messages—and she’s realizing that she may be at the center of a dark faerie prophecy promising destruction to all paranormal creatures.
So much for normal.  (Taken from Amazon.com)

Mrs. Lassley's Review
I have read a lot of young adult books about the paranormal...some good, some bad, some that should have never been published. Paranormalcy is a book that I wish I would have picked up a long time ago. Evie is this normal girl, with an abnormal life. She can see what other people cannot, making her a valauble asset to the company she works for. But then a boy enters the picture (of course). This boy is a shapeshifter who makes her question every thing that she has been told. One of the special things about this book is that Evie does not take herself that seriously. Although there is a romance involved, it does not take up the entire story. AND THERE IS LOL MOMENTS! Which is hard to come by in paranormal books.
The Lone Star committee hit the nail on the head by putting this book on the list. It was wonderful, and I went out and bought the next book, Supernaturally, and have already read it. I will be donating it to my library. Make sure and check out this book in the near future!!!
