When Bliss’s hippie parents leave the commune and dump her at the home of her aloof grandmother in a tony Atlanta neighborhood, it’s like being set down on an alien planet. The only guide naive Bliss has to her new environment is what she’s seen on The Andy Griffith Show. But Mayberry is poor preparation for Crestview Academy, an elite school where the tensions of the present and the dark secrets of the past threaten to simmer into violence. Openhearted Bliss desperately wants new friends, making her the perfect prey of a troubled girl whose obsession with a long-ago death puts Bliss, and anyone she’s kind to, in mortal danger.

This book was... odd.
Not good, not bad.

Just... odd.

I went in expecting a horror story and ended up with a bordering-on-fantasy story. It was interesting, but I felt no connection to the story whatsoever.

It was an interesting waste of my time.

Overall Rating: 5/10.
Bliss or Pet Cemetery:? Stephen King = king of horror. Lauren Myracle = apparently only able to write in chatspeak.
