Publisher's Summary:
It's been almost a year since Jenna Samuels' stoner brother, Casey, bit the dust and returned as her guardian angel; a year since Casey and his "angel boss", Amber Velasco, saved Jenna's life and helped her foil the bad guys, more or less; a year in which Jenna has solved the true mystery of the universe: how to get one Ryan Sloboda to ask her out.
Jenna's feeling mighty cheery about life and love. But Casey, whose doomed relationship with Lanie Phelps isn't doing much to distract him, has his own big question: Why is he still hanging around?
Bo Shivers, a heavenly head honcho Jenna and Casey didn't even know existed, might have the answer. Bo knows something big is coming, something that might just change everything for Jenna Samuels, who once again finds herself up to her non-winged shoulders in heavenly secrets of global proportions just as she's finally found the perfect homecoming dance dress.

Paranormal Nancy Drew
Ever wondered what it would be like in the After-life ? Would you like to be a Guardian Angel?
The past year for Jenna has been anything but boring and mundane with so much a' happening from her brother Casey's death, her own poisoning and her mum is spaced out half the time and her Dad now off with a new life in Texas. If you were like me and thought that having the ability to seek the afterlife and take a looksie at what's happening would be awesome, then after reading "The A-World" , it will have you thinking a whole new outlook as Jenna has to discover who killed Amber . We first met Amber in the first novel as we learned that she was Casey' s Guardian Angel Boss , we also meet a new character named Bo Shivers which does have an eerie feel to it and read as he teaches readers that being an Angel isn't all it is cracked up to be and that it's not all sunshine's and rainbows - that there is darkness looming about. As Jenna is pulled into the world of mystery once again, she dons her Nancy Drew hat and skills along with boyfriend Ryan to figure out the new mystery at hand but can she do so before she finds herself six-feet under and donning a pair of angel wings and Angel status herself ?
Find out in this fun and light-hearted teen mystery with a hint of the paranormal/supernatural themes of Angels and the After-life.
A Fun and Solid Second Book in a Fantastic YA Paranormal Series!
3.5 Stars
'The A-Word' is the second installment in a young adult paranormal series that follows leading lady Jenna Samuels along with her brother, Casey, who is now an angel (a-word) as they try to go back to their normal lives after the catastrophe that happened last year - when Jenna almost died and Casey died to protect her and then came back as her guardian angel. Things are hard enough with high school, boys, friends, and the other things Jenna can't talk to anyone about except Casey - then enter the mysterious Bo Shivers. He's the boss of Casey's A-word boss, Amber. They didn't even know he existed until he appeared out of nowhere - a bit rough around the edges and with tidings of bad things to come.
I found this to be a fun and solid second book in a series that combines humor and paranormal elements to form an original creation.
