I would love to have a beta reader, or a few if that's possible. I'm willing to read your novel in return. Nothing over 65K. Preferrably YA, mystery/suspense/thriller/paranormal/horror. Here's a blurb:
Seventeen-year-old Anne Diver is fascinated with a dead girl. While working in her parents’ cemetery, Anne develops a weird obsession with Mary James, a young girl who died the same age Anne is now. And since Mary died in the 80’s, Anne is a bit of a hoarder when it comes to her 80’s collection— from Bon Jovi posters to Strawberry Shortcake Dolls. Anne considers Mary as a friend and when she talks to her gravesite, she can swear Mary’s listening.
When a few kids from school trash the cemetery, Anne meets Beth—a girl from the group. Taking Anne’s side, the two hatch a plan to get the kids out of the cemetery. Anne’s new friendship grows over the next few weeks and the two become inseparable.
The town has been on edge over the disappearances of two teenage girls. With the help of her friend, Anne starts digging around for clues. When Anne finds a rabbit’s foot key chain at one of the memorial sites and another near Mary’s grave, she thinks it may all be linked somehow. As Anne gets dangerously close to finding the killer, she fears she’s being followed. Now with her life in danger, Anne must find the truth behind it all, before she’s the next missing girl in town.
Cemetery Girl is a 62,000 word young adult mystery with references to 80’s pop culture.
