An unfortunate incident sends 14 year old Gabby to the afterlife WAY before she is ready. First thing on her afterlife journey...witnessing her wake. Not only is she mortified that her mother dressed her in the worst, most non-flattering, white, pleated pants for all eternity, but her least favorite person in the whole world, Angela Black, shows up acting like she is a super model at a fashion show instead of a funeral. Read the full review here.

YABC recently got the chance to interview S.R. Johannes, author of On The Bright Side. Check out her answers to our questions below!
Thank you for joining us on YABC today! First off, can you tell us a little bit about your latest novel, On the Bright Side?
Gabby is a disgruntled tween angel who has just been assigned to protect her school nemesis and ex-beffie. Problem is her ex-beffie is dating Gabby’s longtime crush. Instead of protecting Angela, Gabby pranks her (since when is sticking toilet paper to her shoe or spinach in her teeth a sin?) Soon, Gabby gets out of control and is put on probation by her SKYAgent, who has anger management issues of his own. Determined to right her wrongs, Gabby steals an ancient artifact that allows her to return to Earth for just one day. Without knowing, she kicks off a series of events and learns what can happen when you hate someone to death.
What was the inspiration behind On the Bright Side?
I have always been kind of obsessed with death and the after life. After I read Lisa Schroeder’s I Haunt You…, I found myself wondering more about Jackson’s world. Where was he
