Jonas - Beautiful Dead by Eden Maguire

I just adore murder mysteries. I watch all of those NCIS and CSI shows on telly, but I tend to stay away from them in books because usually they are more directed at adults rather then teens. I'm happy to say that recently I've been finding a lot of novels in my local book shopped with murder themes!

One of which is a book I recently finished called Jonas - Beautiful Dead by Eden Maguire! Darina recently lost the love of her life Phoenix when he was stabbed by a thug in a fight. Darina soon realities that her dead boyfriend has been selected to join a very exclusive clun in limbo called the Beautiful dead. Darina has to help Phoenix and 3 other teenagers from her school who have died in the past year (Jonas, Arizona and Summer) to find out how they died.

I love this type of book, and I love those that also have a supernatural element to them, The beautiful dead plays with the concept of Zombies and Ghosts to create the beautiful dead. Even though the plot is simple, find the murderer/how they died so the dead can get to heaven or hell, but it also has the complicated relationship between Darina and her parents, and also between our protagonist and her boyfriend Phoenix. 

The series is complete with all 4 books currently on a bookshelf near you, so what you waiting for? Go check it out!
