Summary: Nick and Allie, in separate cars, traveling in separate directions, collide in a terrible head-on accident. Both are killed instantly. They end up in a place called Everlost, where the normal rules don't apply. Stopping too long in one place causes them to sink into the ground, and there may or may not be monsters chasing them... Nick and Allie set out to explore this strange new world, and come upon a whole community of young spirits living in the ghosts of the World Trade Center Twin Towers. Nick is quite content there, but Allie wants to find her earthly family--a desire that leads to great danger and even greater adventure.
My thoughts: This is one of those books that everyone loves but me, so don't take my word for it! I do think it has an original plot and is an interesting story, but I wasn't in love with the ending. I did recently find out, though, that there are two sequels on the way, so maybe those will clear things up.
