Romance. Suspense. Thriller. Young Adult Fiction. HTML:

"Nankani channels every teen characterâ??whether perky nerd, cool dude, or shy girlâ??and imbues the adults with memorable characterizations to match their strong personalities, making this an absorbing and fun listen." - AudioFile Magazine

"Imagine Riverdale crossing streams with Stephen King's The Outsider and you'll get a sense of this gripping supernatural mystery...Gould's debut begins as a snappy paranormal yarn and unspools into a profound story about the complex interplay between grief, guilt, and identity." - Oprah Daily


Courtney Gould's thrilling YA debut The Dead and the Dark is about the things that lurk in dark corners, the parts of you that can't remain hidden, and about finding home in placesâ??and peopleâ??you didn't expect.

The Dark has been waitingâ??and it won't stay hidden any longer.
Something is wrong in Snakebite, Oregon. Teenagers are disappearing, some turning up dead, the weather isn't normal, and all fingers point to TV's most popular ghost hunters who have just come to town.
Logan Ortiz-Woodley, daughter of TV's ParaSpectors, has never been to Snakebite before. But the moment she and her dads arrive, she starts to get the feeling that there's more than ghosts plaguing this small town. Ashley Barton's boyfriend was the first teen to go missing, and she's felt his ghost following her ever since. Although everyone shuns the Ortiz-Woodleys, the mysterious Logan may be the only person who can help Ashley get some answers.
When Ashley and Logan team up to figure out whoâ??or whatâ??is haunting Snakebite, their investigation reveals truths about the town, their families, and themselves that neither of them are ready for. As the danger intensifies, they realize that their growing feelings for each other could be a light in the darkness

I received an ARC from a Goodreads giveaway.

I really enjoyed this book. My goal was to read to the halfway point today and then finish it tomorrow, but I was caught up in the mystery and relationships and ended up reading the entire book in one day.

There is so much to like here; complicated family relationships, friendships, the claustrophobic small town setting, the paranormal touches. Plus the two main characters POVs were very relatable. Would definitely recommend. ( )

I really liked this one.

Spooky and gay, with a decent paranormal mystery. ( )

Meh. Cool cover, lackluster story. Everything felt very straightforward and non-twisty. It’s a debut that really felt like a debut— writing wasn’t polished, pov was head hoppy, & characters weren’t all that interesting. This was a bummer because I really wanted to love it.

Oh and also- there are ghosts that send texts in this book and just ( )

A very different kind of paranormal story: ghost hunters, family, death, fear, anger, longing, uncertainty all wrapped up in a place called Snakebite, where teens have gone missing and the Dark is seeking a way to tear everyone in the town apart. However, the Dark comes from a deep depression, an anger of not belonging, accepted for who you are. The Dark is a result of a lack of understanding and acceptance. This was definitely a page turner, one that will keep you reading long into the night. ( )

Im glad I didnt see the book description before starting this because no way I would have read something described as a cross between Stephen King and RIverdale...

But in any case it was a pretty good read. The mystery was on the weaker side imo but strong characters and atmosphere. ( )
