A Supernatural Urban Fantasy 

Looking through the upcoming releases on Goodreads a couple of days ago, I stumbled upon this book for the first time. I can tell you it's rare I get chills from the blurb alone but this one had my heart race in nervous anticipation. You have to agree that this sounds scary!! After that I checked out the author's Facebook page and saw she describes this book as "A supernatural horror novel about two teens surviving the end of times." which piques my interest even moreso. If you know me, you know I love my horror and suspense, so this is definitely right up my alley!

What's are you waiting on?
Leave me a link I'll go visit! =)

    U know whats kinda cool? I also said my WOW was "right up my alley" this week. It was kinda neat to see someone use that expression in their WOW post..I know I am corny huh? lolz.

    I was wondering if you could recommend a good place to see upcoming book releases? Is there a 1 stop shop or a few good thorough sites I can go to? I have a heckuva time finding upcoming releases sometimes.

    Have a wonderful night :)
