Hi, I'm Alexis Delaney. I'm your average 17-year-old girl. Except I can see the dead. And talk to the dead. And push them away and, well, help them move on. For years I've been struggling to survive the souls still roaming around. The shitheads always seem to find me. Moving from town to town every few months never helped either. More dead just always find me. But things are changing for me now. I'm moving in with my uncle Rory and cousin Tara. I'm finally going to be able to do normal teenage stuff I've been missing out on. Right?

Her entire life, Harlow has been the cuckoo in another bird's nest. With an unreliable junkie for a mother and an unknown father, her foster family, the kind, successful, and generous Bostons, are the brightest spot in her life. But even with a foster family like Harlow's, there are some things money can't buy - like the ability to fit in with the shallow socialites who act like her lack of pedigree is contagious.

I was so close to getting everything I wanted - an internship with my uncle, an officer with the special-ops team. If it weren't for a stupid boy that had to go and make me angry, causing me to turn a certain part of his anatomy purple and sparkly, I wouldn't have accidentally revealed to my family what I really was. What I had been hiding.

Seraph Black used to think that she was prepared for anything. She could last days without eating and she always walked away from the violent altercations with her father relatively unharmed. She survived working at the club and the drive to school every day in her mother's rust-bucket of a car...but it all changed when Noah and Cabe came bulldozing into her life, careless of the precious secrets they picked apart in their quest to take over her world. She was even less prepared for the mysterious Miro and Silas, and nothing could have prepared her for the bond. The connection.

When my mother decided to pull me out of school, I didn’t say anything. When she homeschooled me, isolated me, kept me fearful of my peers, I followed along. When she packed me up and sent me across the country to live with my grandmother in the one-stoplight town of Lee Vines, I did as she said. But now that she’s left me here I’m on my own. I can make my own decisions. Make my own mistakes. And that includes if I let in the four boys that live next door.

I'm not so different from most people. Like everyone else, I have life goals. Goal #1: Become a real girl instead of this invisible ghost thing I currently am. Goal #2: Convince the four men I've been haunting for the past five years to pick me to be their new toy after goal one is complete. Goal #3: Figure out who/what I am and why I can't remember anything past the five years I've been haunting this quad. Goal #4: Eat popcorn. See? Perfectly normal. Sort of. Gotta start small, after all. It's not like anyone else is perfect either.

Publisher's Summary
From USA Today best-selling author CL Stone, listen to First Days, the second book in The Academy Ghost Bird Series.
Sang Sorenson used to be the invisible girl in class. As a new student to Ashley Waters High School, Sang hopes that her new friends will be the change she's been craving and will make fitting in a breeze. But Academy students aren't there to take it easy. The high school is overcrowded and rife with violence. When fights begin, Sang will uncover the true reason the boys traded in their private school life for a public one. This year, Sang will no longer be invisible. This year, Sang is a target. The principal and vice principal are hot to take Sang down, and her own mother is determined to entrap Sang forever in her belief that the safest place to be is in the shadows. Despite this, Nathan, Luke, Kota, North, Silas, Victor, and Gabriel will discover Sang's unyielding loyalty. And they will sorely need it. The Academy, supremely influential.

Another home run!
Natalie Eaton did an amazing job at making each character's voice differentiate. She did an fantastic job with the boys voices. Quite impressive.
C.L. Stone never fails at providing flawless writing that will keep you at the edge of your seat craving more and more. The individual relationships that Sang has with each of the boys is so unique. Her tenderness is so sweet. I cannot wait to begin the next book!

Best series ever!
Fantastic second book in this awesome series! Now that Sang and the guys have started school, Ashley Waters HS is proving to be one problem after another. But she’s getting closer with the seven of them and even getting to know Dr. Green and Mr. Blackbourne, which makes her very happy. But trouble seems to follow Sang wherever she goes.
The best part was probably the “A Report” at the end of the book...just wow!
Natalie is doing a great job with the narration!

Loved this book
I really enjoyed the narration and storyline of this, the second book in the Ghost Bird series. We get to know Sang and the Academy boys a little better; we know there are more problems at the school than just bad students but we don't know what exactly those problems mught be. We learn a secret about Sang which could explain somewhat her parents' attitude towards her and it ends, not precisely on a cliffhanger, but there's certainly no real resolution so you do need to go forward to the next book (which is okay because I have that one already).
I loved the pixel/ print version of this book and enjoyed (& will listen again to) the audio version. Sometimes Sang came across as more highstrung in the narration than she had in my head but that's my only real quibble.

AMAZING BOOK!!
I loved this book! Full of mystery, action and a tad bit of romance. I love the parts at the end of each novel with the point of view from the different boys, including the academy teachers. I love the loyalty that was shown with the boys and those they cared about, it makes you wish for that kind of relationship. C.L Stone is an amazing author, with amazing ideas and creativity, I am completely in love with her writing and story. I am loving it so far and find myself - like with any good book series - caught up in the emotions of the book. I completely and utterly love the differences between the boys and how they each are different and yet, perfect for Sang and what she needs to be more confident. I find myself laughing in this book so many times and am still amazed that it has no kissing in it, and yet it is an amazing story. I also love the insight into Sang’s mind and the show of her innocence in not knowing what was ok, I found a connection with this and the not knowing what is right. Full marks from me, I love this book!!!
