Not that Mami will admit anything supernatural is going on. But even the ghost she won’t acknowledge makes real trouble, so Jasmine and her mami are moving (again) to a new apartment in East Hollywood. This time Jasmine is committed to living a normal life with normal friends. Enter: Bea Veracruz and Jorge Barrera. They’re the only two members of Jasmine's middle school's Gay Straight Alliance and they’re already obsessed with all things supernatural. Bea wants to prove herself to her paranormal investigator parents and Jorge is determined to overcome his fear of the beyond. And when Jasmine confesses she’s been tormented by a ghost for years, they not only believe her, they’re thrilled! Together they set out to prove that Jasmine’s not just acting out after her father’s death–ghosts are real and Jasmine is haunted. But not everyone agrees how to deal with the departed. As Jasmine’s hauntings increase in intensity, her resentment builds. Why is her Mami so secretive about her past? Why is she the center of such a terrible vortex of supernatural activity? And why hasn’t her Papi ever reached out to her since he passed? In order to face her ghosts—both internal and external—Jasmine must come to terms with her own history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For as long as Maureen Mary Mulldoon could remember, her destiny was to become a Catholic nun. With rosaries recited, novenas said, and candles lit in her honor, her Irish family prayed for her dedication to the church. Maureens aspirations became not of marriage and children, but of life in the convent. But within a few short years at St. Timothys Catholic School, the shy, freckle faced girl with unruly red curls soon begins to recognize the shortcomings of religious life. She finds the nuns black dresses hideous, the giant swinging rosary beads cumbersome, and the nuns somber personalities downright scary. The Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament could scare any adult, and when they belittle Maureen, critique her hair, and question her quiet disposition she begins to fill with guilt and shame. Maureen dreads parochial school, until she befriends Steven OHara. OHara the Scara brings an element of unpredictability, energy, and outspokenness that can only hail from a long bloodline of troublemakers. His courageous pranks cause Maureen to be both repelled and attracted to this devious boy. Over the years, Steven and Maureen develop a love/hate relationship and by the time they graduate the eighth grade, they realize their true affection for one another. At its heart, Habits, Hosts and the Holy Ghost captures long forgotten memories of attending a Catholic school in the 1960s. The stories are based on actual events experienced by the author and her fellow classmates. It is true confirmation of the humorous yet life changing experiences of anyone who might have heard about or survived the teachings of Catholic nuns.
Download or read book Not All Ghosts Are Holy written by Linda Bridge and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2011-09-22 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A young thirteen-year-old girl wants to become a Religious. This is the story of her journey from a high school student to a Carmelite Religious. At age thirteen, her ability to be aware of the paranormal began to become apparent. She had to learn to control her fears while discerning whether the entity was peaceful, or the essence of evil. She needed to learn what they wanted and how to help them or whether it was evil and how to escape it. It is how a mature Registered Nurse enters the Carmelites and learns to submit herself to her superiors and blend the life of the vows of poverty, chastity and obedience with the autonomy of a nurse, always placing the life of a Religious first, at least to a point. Her experiencing her wedding ceremony to God, becoming accustomed to the garb of a Religious, and learning the rituals and Rule of the Community took years. So, too, did the increasing variety of paranormal experiences that assaulted her, and in time, other members of the Community. All of these experiences were the increasing activities of entities.
