Ruby and Olivia by Rachel Hawkins 240 pages
When Olivia takes the fall for a crime her twin sister committed, she knows she has to live with the punishment she shouldn't have been given. Spending her summer cleaning a creepy old house that has a tree growing right up through its center is bad enough, but she has to serve time with an old enemy, too. This book had just the right amount of creepiness, while not making that the main story. I loved Ruby and Olivia, they were both believable and the fact that each chapter was told from the other girl's perspective was a great way to be able to connect with them both. This is a fun, quick read to hand to someone who likes realistic stories with just a touch of supernatural intrigue.
