Title:<\/strong> Paranormalcy<\/a> Evie is 16 and can identify paranormal beings on sight \u2013 she can see through their glamors to the creature underneath. She\u2019s working for the IPCA, the International Paranormal Containment Agency, who found her as a child when she screamed at the sight of a vampire in a cemetery. They took her out of her foster home and brought her to live at the IPCA center, where she\u2019s home-schooled when she\u2019s not on assignment identifying and tagging vamps, weres, hags, and other supernaturals. Other than her ability to see through glamors, Evie\u2019s just a normal human teenager. Wrong! As the story unfolds, Evie learns that she\u2019s pretty far from normal, in more ways than one. She also learns what it means to be happy, and to be loved, in ways she never expected.<\/p>\n Evie is very much a 16-year-old girl. I love that in a book about what\u2019s normal and not normal, Evie\u2019s more of a normal teenager than a lot of the fully human teens in other YA paranormal novels. She likes to shop and watch television and has a crush on a famous actor. She wants to meet a cute boy who will like her back, and she wants to go to prom. She\u2019s goofy and flirty and at times very insecure, and it makes her easily likeable. Lend is clearly paranormal from the first time we meet him, yet he\u2019s also a very normal teenage boy. I found both characters refreshing in a genre that often expects teenagers to save the world. Now, that\u2019s not to say that Lend and Evie don\u2019t save the world. To find that out, you\u2019ll have to read the book. :)<\/p>\n The story starts out on the more lighthearted side, and it\u2019s told from Evie\u2019s perspective so it\u2019s a little fun and goofy, like she is. As the plot unfolds, the book takes a more serious turn but Evie\u2019s voice is constant. I really enjoy White\u2019s writing style, and I love that she keeps the fun in the story. I recommend this book to anyone who likes to have a little fun, whether young adult or young-at-heart. If you enjoy White\u2019s writing as much as I do, you\u2019ll be happy to know that Paranormalcy is the first book in a trilogy, with the second book, Supernaturally<\/a>, coming out in Autumn 2011.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Title: Paranormalcy Author: Kiersten White Genre: Young Adult Paranormal Publisher: Harper Teen Evie is 16 and can identify paranormal beings on sight \u2013 she can see through their glamors to the creature underneath.
