Still Missing(Fiction)

Chevy Stevens

ISBN: 9780312595678

 

I cannot praise this book enough - debut author Stevens skillfully weaves a story of utter horror as we follow Annie through her year of captivity, and through the days that follow as she tries to pick up the pieces of her shattered life. Annie is the perfect protagonist as the reader will almost certainly identify instantly with her - having seen the occasional episode of "CSI" , she intellectually knows all the things an abducted woman "should" do, and yet faced with the impossibility of her situation, she finds that all she really *can* do is just hold on and survive. Stevens should be congratulated for so thoroughly and carefully characterizing "Annie" to the point where every pain inflicted on her is felt acutely by the reader.

 Firefly Rain (Fiction)
Richard Dansky
ISBN: 1439148635

 

In Firefly rain Jacob Logan returns to his home town after being gone for several years, only to find that the town has been waiting for him and doesn’t plan on letting him leave again. Supernatural forces play havoc in everything that he does. The suspense builds as the mystery of what is causing the strange phenomenon continues to escalate. I couldn’t put this book down. I had to find out how it was going to end and if Jacob will ever get out alive? This is definitely a fun book to read, especially if you have ever been a fan of shows like ‘The Twilight Zone’. --Rick Sovine

I loved this book. So far it's the best book I have ever read, I fell in love with Edward who is a vampire, but hey oh well. I am reading the second book now and love it also. I can't wait for the movie. (Update: I loved the movie!) --Chelsea Garner
