ALL OF THIS COMES OUT!! There was so much I had to share....Happy March 1!!

Clarity “Clare” Fern is a physic, who can see visions with the touch of an object. Her brother Perry is a medium and her mother is a telepath. When people start dying, Clare is the only one who can help and save her brother. But the closer Clare gets to the truth, the more dangerous it becomes. Clarity is a must-read. It’s part Veronica Mars, part Nancy Drew and filled with great characters, mystery, drama, paranormal and romance. It’s a hysterical, wonderful blend of all the best things in YA fiction.  It will keep you wondering whodunit and how in the world so many secrets can exist in a small town.

Kate,
I'm here…
sort of.

Don't tell.

The gorgeous cover of this book is only a glimpse at what lies inside. Everything about Falling Under is so marvelous—the prose, the characters, the plot, the descriptions—I was in love right away. Theia sees Haden in her dreams, and then in her reality and she must figure out what is real and what isn’t. Falling Under is the perfect blend of things that go bump in the night, dreams, nightmares and the deceptive beauty of love. It will challenge your view on what's real and what's only a dream--and how both of those things can completely transform a life. This is story that you won’t be able to predict, with deadly secrets and dreams and reality. Everything is so exciting and descriptive and unique. It will take you down one road only to switch directions and leave you with whiplash. It will tear out your heart, stomp on it and then patch it back together—that’s a good thing, of course.

My mini review (look for longer soon!)

Sean Griswold’s Head is a unique story. When Payton Gritas learns her father has been diagnosed with MS, her whole world starts to fall apart. Her counselor at school tells her to find a focus object—something that she can devote her thoughts and feelings to until she can figure them out. That’s the same day Sean Griswold—the boy who’s sat in front of her for years—talks to her and gives her something to focus on: his head. Sean Griswold’s head tackles a hard issue in a funny, relieving, heart-warming way. It shows you the journey a young girl takes to find herself when everything changes.

It sounds like something I've never read before and I'm pumped about the new and different.

Being only half-vamp in a high school like Carpathia Night makes you a whole loser. But Danny Gray manages to escape the worst of the specists at his school. Thanks to genetic treatments he had as an infant, most people assume Danny's other half is human. Which is a good thing. 
Ever since the development of synthetic blood – SynHeme – vamps have become society’s elite, while wulves like his father work menial jobs and live in bad neighborhoods.  Wulves are less than second class citizens; once a month they become inmates, forced to undergo their Change in dangerous government compounds. For Danny, living with his vamp mother and going to a school with a nearly all-vamp student body, it’s best to pretend his wulf half doesn’t even exist.  But lately Danny's been having some weird symptoms -- fantastic night vision; a keener-than-usual sense of smell; and headaches, right around the full moon. 
Even though it's easy to be in denial, it's hard to ignore evidence.  There's only a month until the next few moon, and Danny's time is running out.
