Paloma is part of a family of psychics in Miami where everyone has a gift, such as talking to ghosts, interpreting dreams or finding lost pets. Paloma has just turned twelve and has discovered that she is just like her grandmother, a famous medium who conducts seances and goes on tours.
Paloma's parents have uprooted Paloma and her sister and moved to California, away from their large extended family. Paloma has to go to a new school and make new friends.
She decides to host seances at school and stream them on social media to convince her grandmother to take her on tour with her. She wants to impress her new friends with her psychic abilities, ends up breaking some important rules when it comes to seances and creates supernatural chaos with a collection of out-of-control ghosts.
Totally Psychic is well written, engaging, creative and fun with some important lessons about family, rules, peer pressure and boundaries. Paloma is a very relatable character for middle school students as she works through conflicts with her family and relationships with her old and new friends.
