Okay, I know this is the third time I've reviewed this book, so I'm going to write a whole new review for you!!! (maybe only one !, it all depends on how many people actually read my blog. It's only going to be a period if no one does.)
Maggie Quinn is a normal high school student, well except for her psychic powers. See, Maggie inherited the Sight from her grandmother, that means she has a freakishly good intuition and sometimes dreams of the supernatural going-ons near her. She has ignored her Sight for much of her life, but when a demon shows up and starts attacking the popular crowd, she can't ignore it any longer. With the help of her two friends, Justin and Lisa, she goes on a mission to save her town and her senior prom.
When Maggie goes to her local college, she hopes everything will be normal, even after she is forced to accept her Sight after battling the Forces of Evil. However, when she decides to go undercover during the Greek Rows Rush for a newspaper article she discovers that one of the sororities made a deal with the devil. In order to save the new and old Greeks from the demon in their society, she must become one of them completely.
Maggie and her best friend/sorceress Lisa are on a road trip to South Padre Island for spring break when they run over a cow in the night and get stuck in a little town called Dulcina. They hope that their Jeep will get fixed soon and then they'll be on their way, but when they find out about mysterious livestock killings and an urban legend by the name of El Chupacabra they decide to help the town. Are they smart enough to beat an unbeatable monster?
Holy cow, these books are good. And not just good, really really awesomesauce good. I like the humor and sarcasm mixed with the action and mystery and great, well developed, three-dimensional characters. This is really the only book I've read that can combine all of those successfully. For the most part, you just get one or two of those traits. It's well written, and everything comes together perfectly. This book is great and you should definitely read it.

P.S. This is unfortunately the last book I have on hand. I will be moving in five days and then I will have access to a library. I plan to check out Gulliver's Travels immediately. Wish me luck on my relocation to the U.S. of A.
P.P.S. Also, in case moving works like theater, tell me to break a leg. You know, for safety.
