What Lies Around The Bend...

"When Daniel is dragged to the Leisure World Holiday Complex for some "time away" with his depressed dad, his expectations are low. But then he spots a mysterious girl swimming in the fake lake, and everything changes. Lexi is funny and smart, but why does she have wounds that get worse each time they meet? Where are her parents? And is her watch really ticking backward?" Review: This book was pretty awesome, not going to lie. I can't exactly pinpoint what made it awesome, it just was. This kid, not the typical looker boys are in novels, who blames himself for breaking up his parent’s marriage. his father doesn't seem to care about his son so much and just drags him along on this trip. Lexi was a wild card that was thrown into the mix. Daniel and Lexi were a great pair and their story was phenomenal. My favorite part was the metaphor about a coup. Overall, this was really good and it's something someone who is going through the grief of a lost l

"Regular kids have enough to deal with between school, homework, extracurricular activities, and friends. But Molly Bigalow isn't a "regular kid." By day Molly is a normal student, but after classes end, Molly is learning how to police and protect zombies. Yeah. Zombies. And how can you be a regular kid when, depending on which side of the equation you were on, your mother was either the most-feared or most-revered zombie hunter in the history of New York City. And she prepared Molly to follow in her legendary footsteps from an early age." Review: This book wasn't bad. I loved the twist Ponti had on the zombie population and how the Omegas policed AND protected them. The story did have faults, such as really cheesy jokes that appeared stupid instead of humorous. Also, it was hard to imagine Molly as only a grammar school student. For the story's sake, it would seem more logical to recruit Omegas in high school than in seventh and eighth grad

"Cas Lowood has inherited an unusual vocation: he kills the dead. So did his father before him, until his gruesome murder by a ghost he sought to kill. Now, armed with his father's mysterious and deadly athame, Cas travels the country with his kitchen-witch mother and spirit-sniffing cat. Together they follow legends and local lore, trying to keep up with the murderous dead - keeping pesky things like the future and friends at bay. When they arrive in a new town in search of a ghost the locals call Anna Dressed in Blood, Cas doesn't expect anything outside of the ordinary: move, hunt, kill. What he finds instead is a girl entangled in curses and rage, a ghost like he's never faced before. She still wears the dress she wore on the day of her brutal murder in 1958: once white, but now stained red and dripping blood. Since her death, Anna has killed any and every person who has dared to step into the deserted Victorian house she used to call home. But she, fo
