''Deadgirl'' is the debut novel by young adult author B.C. Johnson. It follows the story of Lucy Day, a fifteen-year-old girl who goes out on her first date and ends up [[The Hero Dies|shot dead in a parking lot]]. Until she wakes up the next morning [[First-Episode Resurrection|right as rain]]. [[Our Ghosts Are Different|Sort of]]. As it turns out, it gets a lot harder to survive after you've already died. Who knew?
 
Not related to the [[Deadgirl (Film)|film of the same name]]. Probably.

Line 16:
* [[The Grim Reaper]]: Everybody has their own personal one, usually referred to as a [[Classical Mythology|Mors]].
* [[Hair of Gold]]: Lucy's gorgeous best friend Morgan.
* [[The Hero Dies]]: In the prologue. But if you didn't suspect that [[Exactly What It Says Onon the Tin|from the title]]...
* [[Life Energy]]
* [[Meaningful Name]]: [[The Bible (Literature)|Abraham]]. [[William Shakespeare (Creator)|Robin Goodman]].
* [[Mundane Afterlife]]: The Grey, sort of. Mundane, yes, afterlife... well, it's not quite that permanent.
* [[Our Ghosts Are Different]]
Line 24:
* [[Psychic Powers]]: Part and parcel of [[Came Back Strong|coming back strong]].
* [[Pyrrhic Victory]]: In the end, {{spoiler|Lucy defeats Abraham, meaning she's essentially achieved a type of [[Immortality]]}}, but {{spoiler|Zack sacrifices his feelings for Lucy to give her the essence she needs to fight, Morgan is shattered by her role in Abraham's demise, and Lucy's relationship with her parents might be damaged beyond repair}}.
* [[Rape Asas Drama]]: Attempted and completed both come up once or twice each.
* [[Resurrective Immortality]]: Phantoms, as long as they remember to [[Vampiric Draining|eat]] and don't get caught by their [[The Grim Reaper|Mors]]. It's somewhat conditional immortality, but even Superman has kryptonite.
* [[Shrinking Violet]]: Wanda.
