She hears something in the bathroom so she goes to see what it is and when she walks in she sees a bathtub filled with rose petals. She sees a paper and tries to grab it but ends up falling in to the tub. Later, she looks on the Internet about what happened with Diana del mar (actor who owned Willa's house). It said that she died in a bath of rose petals. "The ghost of key west is written by David L. Sloan. In the book there are different kinds of stores of the ghost of key west. There was a story about a girl who was visiting key west for vacation. It was many years ago. A girl was going to sleeping and while she was asleep she kept smelling cigar smoke coming from the hall. Key west is known for their cigars. She complained about it the next morning but they couldn't do anything about. The next night the same thing happened and she went outside to see where the smell was coming from but there wasn't anybody in the rooms next to her and there wasn't anyone in the hall. Later the smell was coming from the ghost who was smoking. The ghost was the maker of cigars. These two books are similar because they ar both about ghost and how they bother them.

Willa has been having these visions of rose pedals and water. She tries not to touch the water but she ends up falling in. Later she realizes that it's the actress who used to live there's ghost/spirit. " I was about to dig the box out of my closet when the computer finished booting up. Since I was there, I might as well do a little reasearch before opening the portal again. To be honest, I wasn't all that excited about disregarding Leyta's warning. On some level, I believed she knew what she was talking about. I clicked on the web broswser. Explor every lead, I thought. Leave no stone unturned. So I decided to start with something easy - I googled Paige Pollan. That when I realized that there would never be  a reply to the email id sent. Because Paige Pollan killed herself last August." Paige Pollan was the physic Willa and Wyyat talked to about the visions Willa has been having. Now she can't get any help or anymore information because Paige killed herself. So the investigation is gonna be a little harder.

Famous Last Words

Famous last words is written by Katie Alender. This book is about a girl name Willa who moved into her step dads house in LA with her mother. Over the years shes tried to communicate with her dead father but there has been no luck. There is a killer on the lose and he/she is only after famous movie stars. When he started her new school she met a guy who's been researching everything that has happened with the killer. His name is Wyatt. Wyatt writes everything down in his notebook. One day during class he accidentally leaves his notebook. Willa picks it up and tries to catch Wyatt and give it back to him bu she couldn't catch up to him. She puts it in her backpack and goes home. She tried to give it to him but hasn't had any opportunity's to. She reads the notebook and see all of the victim's names and date they were killed. Throughout the week she starts to have these visions about a guy torturing someone. She hears the name and the names are the same names that that the killer has killed. She doesn't really know why she's having these visions out of nowhere. She hasn't told anyone because no one would believe her or they would think she's crazy. One day shes at the dinner table eating with her family and she looks up at her mom and she see writing behind her. on page 83, "This is the kind of dream you don't wake up from, Henry" and underneath that sentence it started to repeat the numbers "818" over and over again down the wall. Her mother notices she acting weird and calls out her name but Willa is scared and confused. I think that Willa is going to find out who the killer is and she's going to work with Wyatt on the project. She's gonna probably only tell him about her visions and they are going to work together and find the killer.
