FIRST SENTENCE
“Wait – did you – You just yawned!”
SUMMARY

from goodreads
Weird as it is working for the International Paranormal Containment Agency, Evie’s always thought of herself as normal. Sure, her best friend is a mermaid, her ex-boyfriend’s a faerie, she’s falling for a shape-shifter, and she’s the only person who can see through paranormals’ glamours, but still. Normal.
Only now paranormals are dying, and Evie’s dreams are filled with haunting voices and mysterious prophecies. She soon realizes that there may be a link between her abilities and the sudden rash of deaths. Not only that, but she may very well be at the center of a dark faerie prophecy promising destruction to all paranormal creatures.
REVIEW
If you think you have read everything there is to read in the paranormal genre, think again. Kiersten White takes paranormal and flips it upside down and inside out. The result is all kinds of CREATIVENESS! (is that a word?)
I am a girlie-girl myself, so main character Evie was someone I could relate to. Come on, she calls her pink taser, Tasey! And she wears an insane amount of pink. Evie is funny and flirty – sweet and sarcastic. Oh, and did I mention she is one very tough cookie too? Let’s just say that she can kick some paranormal bootie when she wants to.
The romance between Evie and shape-shifter Lend was adorable. Lend is a nice guy and he seems to be a perfect match for Evie. I liked that they were so playful with each other. Who would think that dating a shape-shifter could be so fun?
The whole idea of there being an International Paranormal Containment Agency (IPCA) made the plot unique from the get-go. IPCA is a secret agency that monitors and tracks paranormals. It’s weird and spooky to imagine something like IPCA being real.
If you want a new take on paranormals and like a good laugh, then you will love Paranormalcy.
