Mara Dyer believes life can't get any stranger than waking up in a hospital with no memory of how she got there.
It can.

She believes there must be more to the accident she can't remember that killed her friends and left her strangely unharmed.
There is.

She doesn't believe that after everything she's been through, she can fall in love.
She's wrong.


Melissa (melissabaez) | 127 comments ok so I read it


Raquel (Rocki) (raquelrocki) | 219 comments Mod
I just started it and its already crazy


Melissa (melissabaez) | 127 comments I loved the first page where she talks to the reader. It gives a really eerie feeling.


Raquel (Rocki) (raquelrocki) | 219 comments Mod
yea that was confusing after i read the first two chapters i had to go back and reread that part.


Brittain *Needs a Nap and a Drink* (bwilliams2013) | 169 comments It's really well written too. No glaring grammatical problems and good prose. That's really refreshing for a YA book.


Raquel (Rocki) (raquelrocki) | 219 comments Mod
OMG I am at a 100 pages and can't stop I have to work overnight tonight and I don't think I am going to be getting any sleep. It's such an addicting read.


Melissa (melissabaez) | 127 comments Very addicting! I lost sleep over this book.


Raquel (Rocki) (raquelrocki) | 219 comments Mod
I can understand why


Brittain *Needs a Nap and a Drink* (bwilliams2013) | 169 comments I was up until at least 1 last night finishing this


Raquel (Rocki) (raquelrocki) | 219 comments Mod
I'm glad I'm no alone in that feeling.


Raquel (Rocki) (raquelrocki) | 219 comments Mod
oh and don't wear stupid shoes... *blinks* *looks at current shoes on my feet* Are you stupid? lol this line had me laughing so hard.

I understand he probably means don't wear high heeled shoes or sandals or something like that but just the way it is worded had me laughing.


Brittain *Needs a Nap and a Drink* (bwilliams2013) | 169 comments Merry Christmas y'all


Raquel (Rocki) (raquelrocki) | 219 comments Mod
Merry Christmas! Hope you two are having a good day!


Melissa (melissabaez) | 127 comments Merry Christmas!
Hope you guys were on Santa's good list :P

What do you mean that's the end of Volume One ... You can't just end a book like that!


Melissa (melissabaez) | 127 comments Did you guys see coming that she killed them?
I had read a book like a couple of weeks ago-maybe two?- and idk, I felt like it prepared me for this one, because I guessed it from the get-go that she somehow killed them all. I just wouldn't have guessed it was because of some weird unexplained powers.

Also even though Jude it real and not dead I still think she has like Schizophrenic traits, she saw Claire after all. My God this girl is so unreliable I'm not sure I believe Jude is really alive. You never know with her.


Brittain *Needs a Nap and a Drink* (bwilliams2013) | 169 comments I think I suspected right from the beginning that she killed them. I would love to get a book from Noah's POV.


Raquel (Rocki) (raquelrocki) | 219 comments Mod
Yea I knew that she killed them I just didn't suspect that it would be because of some weird powers like you said. I was thinking because of the ouiji board that she got possessed or something... I watch to many scary movies lol... or than I thought that maybe she was just seeing these deaths as they happened like some kind of psychic gift you know.

Yea I'm still not sure if Jude is really alive he seems like he is but she has seen stuff before it could be someone who looks a lot like him.


Brittain *Needs a Nap and a Drink* (bwilliams2013) | 169 comments Finally got my review in y'all


Kayana | 3 comments I was a little disappointed. I also can't explain why. I don't know it just didn't grab me like the other books.


Raquel (Rocki) (raquelrocki) | 219 comments Mod
Have you read the third one?


Kayana | 3 comments Yes I have read the third one, which is my second favorite out of the three books


Raquel (Rocki) (raquelrocki) | 219 comments Mod
Okay that's what I was wondering because I heard some people didn't like the third book as much as the other two.


Brittain *Needs a Nap and a Drink* (bwilliams2013) | 169 comments Does that mean we need to read the last one?


Raquel (Rocki) (raquelrocki) | 219 comments Mod
I don't think Melissa wanted to read the last one but if you still wanted to Britt we could do a buddy read sometime.


Melissa (melissabaez) | 127 comments Yeah, nope. I still haven't even finished book 2, which I can remember the name. But you guys could do it :D


Brittain *Needs a Nap and a Drink* (bwilliams2013) | 169 comments That would be good with me. Just let me catch up a bit on my reading. I've been distracted by anime/manga and k-pop for a while now and it isn't getting any better.


Melissa (melissabaez) | 127 comments It never will. Once you're in there is no way out Brit

This is my life now



The awesome part is that these guys can dance. The sad part is watching them try to be hard and tough and it comes off as awkward and adorable. There was one performance where a guy was wearing a dishrag on his head instead of a do-rag.


Melissa (melissabaez) | 127 comments Damn, they move better than me. I'd probably fall on my butt on the way down


Brittain *Needs a Nap and a Drink* (bwilliams2013) | 169 comments My knees couldn't take it. I'd be popping and creaking all the way.

The guy on the far right...his abs...


Brittain *Needs a Nap and a Drink* (bwilliams2013) | 169 comments Ok. Last one because I'm creeping myself out and THIS SHOULDN'T BE GOOGLE-ABLE




Melissa (melissabaez) | 127 comments lol dishrag!!!

Yeah the guy with the abs, I was totally checking him out b4 you mentioned it. I don't think you could miss those.

so...ummm...What the name of this show. Educational purposes only. Obviously

OKay just let me know when you are ready Britt. Sorry I didn't see these messages before had to take a trip down to Tulsa to get set up for my new job that I start next friday... So excited! Didn't have a computer and my phone died on the way down there :( I have a long reading list too so no rush. Also nice dancing guys.

It's all good. I've got a bit of a backlog of books too so we can get to it whenever :-)

The dancing guys and bright flashy colors of KPop have kept me entertained for 2 weeks now. I'm not corrupting Melissa with it. Nobody is safe.
