One of the things that bothered me a bit in the first book was the relationship between the main character and her mother, who was religious, and scared of the occult. I felt that issue was beautifully resolved in this book, even if it did bring great conflict to the previous story.I'm not Christ...
I am soooo in love with this series! Not only did it REALLY keep me company while I was laid up in bed with this crud, but they characters are doing things that I have always wanted to do. Things I have ALWAYS been fascinated by. I've always been on the fence about these things though because, r...
Rolling over to my right, I try to see my clock, but it’s so damn dark, even the numbers aren’t illuminated. In fact, my entire room is blanketed in utter blackness. Either my pink Christmas tree burned out or someone unplugged it while I was asleep. I can’t make out any shapes, furniture, or win...
I pluck at the tiny spaghetti straps of my new dress that molds to my bust and midriff and tapers over my hips, ending just above my knee with a nice long slit in the back. I’ll admit, I feel kind of sexy as the fabric brushes the back of my bare—freshly shaved and nicely tanned—legs. &nbs...
"I could totally eat a horse," Maddie exclaims. "Please don't," Willow quips, the first time she's loosened up in the two hours since we met her. "What? The horse is one of my totem animals." "I don't think she meant it literally," I say to Willow. In addition to smelling the various meats, I sen...
Stephanie Crawford texted me that she and Courtney wrote the apology letter to Xander the Doll, and the two of them signed it, as did Farah. Actually, Farah had Stephanie sign her name. Hopefully that'll be enough. Time for work. I'm not exactly in the mood to read other people's futures right no...
—Eleanor Roosevelt The gurney is moving again. I watch as the ceiling panels pass by overhead; a fluorescent light breaking up the tiles every now and then. We stop, and I hear the ding of the elevator. “We gotta go,” one of the orderlies says. “We love you, Hayley.” Mom kisses me. “I’ve got my w...
"You'll never believe what I've got." "Info on Sherry Biddison?" I've been thinking about the spirit nonstop since our investigation on Saturday. Stopping in her tracks, Celia frowns. "No. I mean, sort of, but no. I have something on Emily." Jesus in the garden! With all my thoughts of Sherry, I'...
I squint behind my super-trendy (at least they were in Chi-Town) black Coach sunglasses that hide my sleep-deprived eyes from the blaring Georgia sunshine. Our Toyota Sienna is parked in front of this extremely aged, brick building with Radisson High School chiseled in the top cement in a very Ti...
"Whoa, Sarah!" I say, only half kiddingly. Mom shakes her head. "I knew we should have left Radisson earlier. I don't want to keep the doctor waiting." As a longtime nurse, Mom thinks it's incredibly rude for patients to keep the medical staff waiting when they have set appointments. Of course, s...
