Dead Connection

For the approaching book report I chose to read the book "Dead Connection, by Charlie Price. This book is fantasy seeing as Murray talks to dead people. These dead people are Murray's best friends, he has a huge struggle fitting in at school so every afternoon after school he visits the Cemetery. Murray lives with his mother and plans to die after high school and join his friends, he claims that his mother doesn't mind him dying since she doesn't need him around the house. Murray comforts all of the buried people. Murray's best friend is Dearly, who died in a car wreck. She went on a date with her boyfriend and he was extremely drunk, as they were driving home they hit a tree and she went through the convertible's windshield and bled to death.
