Alexis is the main character of this story, along with her little sister Kasey; they are not your average teenage girls. They are both very strange. In this story Kasey Alexis' little sister goes through mood swings, but they get a little out of control. The things in the story are very paranormal such as doors opening, and closing by themselves, water boils on its own, and an unplugged air conditioner makes the house so cold the girls can see their own breath. The house isn't the only thing that's changing, but Kasey is too her blue eyes go green, she uses old fashioned language, and starts forgetting chunks of time. The most disturbing thing is a chip on Kasey's shoulder.

 * Katie Alender is a new author, there are no other works by her.**
 * social issue;** the social issue in this book is there was a car accident in the book with their dad, and he got hit by a drunk driver, but right before his car stalled because someone who they think was Kasey cut the wires in his car which is also another issue, which is vandolism. some teenagers need o watch the things they are doing because they can get in major trouble for the things they are doing.

i would chose Avril Lagvine for Alexis because she has kind of that dark weird side to her, but then she also has that down to earth, curious side, & thats exactly how Alexis is when she starts seeing weird things happening with Kasey. I would chose Noah Cyrus for Kasey because she is a young girl who is very fun, but she would do an amazing job with playing a posessed little sister. I would chose Zac Efron for Carter because he has that smooth kind of misterious personality, & would do great with protecting someone he had a crush on. & last but not least I would choose Bruce Willis & Eva Longoria for the parents because the dad in this book is very fun, but then he has that business man type, & the mom is the type who likes to sometimes keep to herself, but then she can be very curious, and fun.
