Amy of the Necromancers by Jimena I. Novaro
5.0
I received an ARC of this for free.
I read this in one sitting, I just couldn't stop! A teenage necromancer brings her first human back to life - a little girl - so she has to deal with that on the same day as school starts! Amy is in one way a pretty normal teenager, but every female in her family has a death power. Her family and friends help her solve the mystery of who the child is, how she died and why she came back.
This book deals with death and mental illness in a great way, and also has a cast of very diverse characters. The romance was obvious, but cute. I find this is suitable for a wide range of ages, it didn't feel very YA to me, but it's definitely suitable for teenagers.
