Born at Midnight<\/a><\/em> (2011) C. C. Hunter<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Kylie is having what is justifiably the worst day ever.<\/p>\n

On top of losing her favorite grandmother and her boyfriend breaking up with her, she comes home from school to discover that her parents are getting divorced. In fact, her father is throwing clothes in a suitcase and storming out.<\/p>\n

Plus, her night terrors have returned.<\/p>\n

In an effort to take a break from all the crap in her life, Kylie goes to a party. Unfortunately, it ends up being the wrong party, and now she’s being shipped off to a camp for troubled youth. <\/p>\n

Could things get any worse?<\/p>\n

Yup. The camp is for supernatural youth. As far as Kylie is concerned, she doesn’t have any special powers, but the counselors are convinced she does, and they’re the cause of her night terrors.<\/p>\n

One of the things I particularly liked was that there were no easy answers for Kylie, and as hard as it is for a child to be caught in the middle of their parent’s divorce, Kylie learns there is no one bad guy when a marriage falls apart.<\/p>\n

Very enjoyable. Even if everything wasn’t completely resolved, it was a solid ending that left you wanting to know more rather than wondering what the heck is going on.
