Synopsis:
From the moment Hannah Sanders arrived in town, she felt there was something wrong.
Alot of houses were for sale, and the town seemed infected by an unearthly quiet. And then, on Hannah's first day of classes, she ran into a group of cheerleaders-the most popular girls in school.The odd thing was that they were nearly identical in their appearance. Blonde, beautiful, and deathly pale.
But Hannah wants desperately to fit in-regardless of what her friend Lukas is telling her: If she doesn't watch her back, she's going to be blonde and popular and dead-just like all the other zombies in this town . . .

About this book:
About This Book
A startling, uncompromising novel by the author of Pure Sunshine.
A startling, uncompromising novel by the author of Pure Sunshine.
Elizabeth is a pickpocket and thief living on the edge in New York City. She and her foster sister, Alexi, are living with Sandra — a modern-day Fagin who takes in foster children and then forces them to steal things for her.
Even though she's sick of it, Elizabeth doesn't really question her life until Sandra takes in a third foster child, this time a boy. Dune is a completely lost soul, and Elizabeth begins to see the limits of her life. Sandra is not going to let her go easily — but Elizabeth knows she has to find a way out.
With brutal honesty and striking lyricism, Brian James has created a character you'll never forget, trapped in a situation that's frighteningly real.
So there you have it! I hope I brought you a little something new too! Thanks again to Brian James!

Sounds great! I love YA books. :)
ReplyDeleteOhh these sound like really good books. Congrats on getting them. I can't wait to hear what you thought of them after reading them
ReplyDeleteI know doesn't it? I can't wait to get to them...they're piling up a little here at the hospital. My surgery is coming up quick and I won't be on for a while. But hope to be back on as soon as I can. I'll let you know when I'm gone.
ReplyDeleteThanks for supporting me J.Kaye.
Cheryl, Thank you so much you always are so sweet! You know, I'm going to miss all of your comments as well. Your support is always appreciated as well. I don't know what I'm going to do while I'm not here. I'm of course very scared and nervous, but what has to be done, I guess has to be.
XOXO
