Goodbye Days: A Novel by Jeff Zentner
Though not as good as The Serpent King for me, I enjoyed Goodbye Days. Carver’s three best friends are killed in a car accident as a result of distracted driving. The driver of the car was responding to Carver’s text. Besides dealing with his personal guilt and sorrow, Carter is threatened with being tried for criminal intent. He sent the text knowing his friend was driving and expecting him to respond immediately. I loved the camaraderie of the four friends which includes goofy bathroom and body humor. But there are also sweet relationships with family members. Expect tears.

Tea’s ability to communicate with the dead sets her apart from the other witches in her community. Watch the book trailer for more information about this magical fantasy.
