This was such a cute story. At fewer than 100 pages, Playing Hooky was an entertaining way to spend an hour.Emma's best friend Jason shows up on her 21st birthday to take her out on an adventure. He brings her to a circus where she is introduced to a bunch of paranormal creatures. Oddly enough, she doesn't seem at all surprised to meet all these mythical beings, and soon enough Emma and Jason are searching the town for a missing Siren.Emma and Jason were awesome together. They've been friends since childhood, each of them secretly crushing on the other. Their characters were fun and easy to like, and I loved them together. There really wasn't much romance, but the chemistry between them (although subtle) was there, so I'm sure we'll see more of that as the series continues.In the end, this was a fun read and I found myself wishing that it had been a longer story. If you're looking for a quick paranormal story then try this one out.
