RADIANCE BY ALYSON NOEL
Square Fish (August 31, 2010)Riley Bloom left her sister, Ever, in the world of the living and crossed the bridge into the afterlife—a place called Here, where time is always Now. Riley and her dog, Buttercup, have been reunited with her parents and are just settling into a nice, relaxing death when she's summoned before The Council. They let her in on a secret—the afterlife isn't just an eternity of leisure; Riley has to work. She's been assigned a job, Soul Catcher, and a teacher, Bodhi, a curious boy she can't quite figure out.
Riley, Bodhi, and Buttercup return to earth for her first assignment, a Radiant Boy who's been haunting a castle in England for centuries. Many Soul Catchers have tried to get him to cross the bridge and failed. But he's never met Riley...
If you are a fan of Alyson Noel's Immortal series, how can you not want to read this? And that cover--I love it!

I love the cover for this one...so dreamlike =)
The cover on this book I REALLY like! Totally added it to my growing wishlist!
This should be an interesting read. I'll have to add it to my wish list.
This sounds like an interesting read, plus it has a dog in it called Buttercup, how cute! Great pick.
If this book was in a library I would definitely pick it up. Great Waiting for Wednesday read.
Fabulous cover! Sounds magical...

Def on my waiting list. I quite love Riley!
I'll bet a lot of readers are waiting on this book!
This is on my wishlist! I love the pretty cover, too.

I can't wait for this either! It looks really good and I love the cover - and I like that it appears different to the Immortals series!
Mine's here if you're interested. :)

My WoW is here

Looks like a good read, have fun reading!
Ooo me too! Its so dreamy.
I am currently reading the fourth book in her series, Dark Flame! I really want to read Radiance but my only reservation is, it's published for middle grade readers. So I am afraid it might read alot younger then we're used to with her YA series.
This is the first in her new series spin off with Riley. Hopefully it can be enjoyed by young adults as well. I really want to read it!
My WoW is here.
This is one of my picks too. Looks great!

I was wondering too if this one was more middle grade...hmm...either way I have to check it out. Riley made the first book for me. :)
Definitely agree with this pick! Riley was always my favorite character, so I'm excited to hear more backstory on her!
Gorgeous cover. I'm not a Noel fan, but this looks pretty interesting.
