The Summoning (The Darkest Powers, Book 1) by Armstrong Kelley
After years of frequent moves following her mother's death, Chloe Saunders's life is finally settling down. She is attending art school, pursuing her dreams of becoming a director, making friends, meeting boys. Her biggest concern is that she's not developing as fast as her friends are. But when puberty does hit, it brings more than hormone surges. Chloe starts seeing ghosts-everywhere, demanding her attention. After she suffers a breakdown, her devoted aunt Lauren gets her into a highly recommended group home. At first, Lyle House seems a pretty okay place, except for Chloe's small problem of fearing she might be facing a lifetime of mental illness. But as she gradually gets to know the other kids at the home-charming Simon and his ominous, unsmiling brother Derek, obnoxious Tori, and Rae, who has a thing for fire-Chloe begins to realize that there is something that binds them all together, and it isn't your usual problem kid behaviour. And together they discover that Lyle House is not your usual group home either.
KELLEY ARMSTRONG lives in southwestern Ontario with her husband, kids and far too many pets. She has been telling stories since before she could write. Her earliest written efforts were disastrous. If asked for a story about girls and dolls, hers would invariably feature undead girls and evil dolls, much to her teachers' dismay. Today, she continues to spin tales of ghosts and demons and werewolves, while safely locked away in her basement writing dungeon. She is the bestselling author of the Women of the Otherworld series, as well as the New York Times #1 bestselling young adult trilogy Darkest Powers, and is about to publish the last book in Darkness Rising, her next YA trilogy. She is also hard at work on a new adult trilogy that will break new ground for both her writing and her fans.
