Hush Hush
Recently I read a book that reminded me a lot of Twilight, but let me tell you, to me, it was way better. The book is called Hush Hush, by Becca Fitzpatrick. One of my favorite things about it was that you can't put it down, you have to read until the very last page. It was humorous, suspenseful, and much more.
Nora Grey was having a good school year, that is, up until they got a new seating arrangement in class. First you think, no big deal right? Wrong. Not when you have to sit next to the exchange student, Patch. He wasn't ugly, nor mean, just...weird. No, not weird, nothing was wrong with him at all, but that's not what Nora thought. His past seemed to have holes in it, he didn't have any records of his old school, or his home address in his student file, just nothing. On top of that, Nora's slowly liking him more...and more... and more. But that's the last thing she wants, not with these strange events going on. A masked man everywhere she goes, and the worst thing... Patch is always whenever she see's the man. And then there's the new kid, Elliot, who seems perfectly normal, along with his friend, Jules. Or are they normal...?
Patch has a secret, a huge one, maybe even a dark one. Read this amazing book to find out who the masked man is, and most importantly... who Patch is.

WORD For Teens: Cast Your Villian
Ok guys, I'm entering a giveaway from WORD for Teens, all I have to do is say my favorite villain! Anyways, if you win you not only get a copy of "The Body Finder", but an advaced readers copy of the sequel "Desires of the Dead"!
Here's my favorite villain.
Villain: Nora Grey from Hush Hush.
Cast: I would probably have Anna Kendricks play this part, I really don't know why.
Why: Well, first of all, I know what you're thinking, Nora is NOT a villain. Yes, I know, but I think in Hush Hush she was really fighting with herself. If you've read Hush Hush, then you probably know that Nora doesn't really like her new friend, Patch, but at te same tine, she loves him. So I think Part of Nora was really fighting with herself trying to figure out if Patch wasgood enough or not.
If you are going to join this giveaway just comment on this post and I will give you the link.

Prada and Prejudice
Hey everyone! Like the new look for my blog? Anyways...when you first hear the title, you think oh, Jane Austin. right? Well, this is Prada and prejudice not Pride and prejudice, and let me tell you, this is one heck of a good book.
Callie thinks she's going to have the time of her life when she goes on a school trip to England, she thinks she's going to out every night and have fun, but no, she was wrong. She is stuck inside the hotel with nothing and no one, plus her travel buddy (only the most popular girl in school) isn't going to take her anywhere. Not in her normal old flip flops and normal clothes, no, she has to wear designer brands. So Callie goes out and buys a pear of Prada shoes and hopes for the best she gets to leave the hotel tonight. But as soon as she steps outside of the shoe store she trips and falls! Even worse, when she wakes up she's not somewhere she would want to be, or more likely when she wanted to be, Callie had gone back to 1815! With nowhere to go, a girl named Emily (only the cousin of a Duke) takes her in when she mistakes her for a friend, and Callie finds herself to be in a great adventure. First, can she pose as the girl Rebecca before the real one comes along? And can she fix Emily's engagement? And can she figure out whats going on with Alex, the Duke?
You can't ever put this book down, its filled with romance, humor, and much more. Do you want to find out what happens to Callie? Will she ever return to modern day? Read Prada and Prejudice by Mandy Hubbard to find out.

The Body Finder
The Body Finder, creepy title huh? Yeah well, don't judge a book by its title, ok enough of my bad jokes. The Body Finder is one of the GREATEST books I have read in a long time. Not only is it suspenseful, but funny and romantic, in a teenager way at least.
Violet Ambrose is normal in a lot of ways, she's just another girl, in another school, with another normal, teenager life. But one thing separates her from other girls at her school, better yet, anyone at all. She has a gift, a power. To sense dead bodies. From her first discovery of a girl when she was eight, to the many other findings she has later in the book. But its not only the bodies that she senses, but the people or animals that killed them. So when Violet finds a girl who had gone missing, she is destined to find out who has killed her, and many others. On top of that, Violet's trying to settle out her friendship with her best friend Jay, and try to keep away from a not so friend, Grady.
Violet not only has to deal with that though, she has to find the killer, without killing herself. And then another thought haunts her, what if the killer has another hunt coming up? What if he's hunting her?
Read this amazing thriller by Kimberley Derting.
