I Heart You, You Haunt Me by Lisa Schroeder

Heart You

Synopsis

Girl meets boy.

Girl loses boy.

Girl gets boy back...

...sort of.


Ava can't see him or touch him, unless she's dreaming. She can't hear hisvoice, except for the faint whispers in her mind. Most would think she'scrazy, but she knows he's here.

Jackson. The boy Ava thought she'd spend the rest of her life with. He's back from the dead, as proof that love truly knows no bounds.

RagDollVampGirl's Review

This Book Was Breath-Takingly Beautiful. Jackson Seemed So Much More Realistic Than Other Ghosts I've Read About. I Love The Fact That He Communicates Through The Radio. Ava Seemed Fragmented And Pushing The Pieces Back Together. The Flashbacks, The Music, The Scent And The Cool Air Left Me Questioning Ava's Sanity.. But The Book Comes Together Amazingly And Leaves You With Joyful Tears.. This Book Is Perfect For Anyone Grieving, Saddened By A Loss, Either By Love Or Death. It's Written In Verse And Is A Very Quick Read.. I Highly Recommend This Book!! I Can't Wait To Read More By Lisa Schroeder..

Rating 5/5

Wishlist Wednesday (Zombie Edition)

Today's Wishlist Consist Of Two Zombie Books I Can't Wait For!!

First Up, Never Slow Dance With A Zombie by E. Van Lowe

Photobucket

Synopsis (From Amazon)

Principal Taft's 3 Simple Rules for Surviving a Zombie Uprising:

Rule #1: While in the halls, walk slowly and wear a vacant expression on your face. Zombies won't attack other zombies.

Rule #2: Never travel alone. Move in packs. Follow the crowd. Zombies detest blatant displays of individuality.

Rule #3: If a zombie should attack, do not run. Instead, throw raw steak at to him. Zombies love raw meat. This display of kindness will go a long way.

On the night of her middle school graduation, Margot Jean Johnson wrote a high school manifesto detailing her goals for what she was sure would be a most excellent high school career. She and her best friend, Sybil, would be popular and, most important, have boyfriends. Three years later, they haven't accomplished a thing!

Then Margot and Sybil arrive at school one day to find that most of the student body has been turned into flesh-eating zombies. When kooky Principal Taft asks the girls to coexist with the zombies until the end of the semester, they realize that this is the perfect opportunity to live out their high school dreams. All they have to do is stay alive....

Second Book Up Is, I Kissed A Zombie, And I Liked It by Adam Selzer

kissed A Zombie

Synopsis (From Amazon)

Algonquin “Ali” Rhodes, the high school newspaper’s music critic, meets an intriguing singer, Doug, while reviewing a gig. He’s a weird-looking guy—goth, but he seems sincere about it, like maybe he was into it back before it was cool. She introduces herself after the set, asking if he lives in Cornersville, and he replies, in his slow, quiet murmur, “Well, I don’t really live there, exactly. . . .”

When Ali and Doug start dating, Ali is falling so hard she doesn’t notice a few odd signs: he never changes clothes, his head is a funny shape, and he says practically nothing out loud. Finally Marie, the school paper’s fashion editor, points out the obvious: Doug isn’t just a really sincere goth. He’s a zombie. Horrified that her feelings could have allowed her to overlook such a flaw, Ali breaks up with Doug, but learns that zombies are awfully hard to get rid of—at the same time she learns that vampires, a group as tightly-knit as the mafia, don’t think much of music critics who make fun of vampires in reviews. . . .

Release Date - 1/26/2010

What I've Recieved And Review..

This Week I Only Got One Book Which Was The Treasure Map of Boys: Noel, Jackson, Finn, Hutch--and me, Ruby Oliver (Ruby Oliver, Book 3) by E. Lockhart

Treasure Map

Synopsis

Ruby is back at Tate Prep, and it’s her thirty-seventh week in the state of Noboyfriend. Her panic attacks are bad, her love life is even worse, and what’s more:

Noel is writing her notes, Jackson is giving her frogs, Gideon is helping her cook, and Finn is making her brownies. Rumors are flying, and Ruby’s already-sucky reputation is heading downhill.

Not only that, she’s also: running a bake sale, learning the secrets of heavymetal therapy, encountering some seriously smelly feet, defending the rights of pygmy goats, and bodyguarding Noel from unwanted advances.

In this companion novel to The Boyfriend List and The Boy Book, Ruby struggles to secure some sort of mental health, to understand what constitutes a real friendship, and to find true love—if such a thing exists.

RagDollVampGirl's Quick Review

Ruby Oliver Is The Epitomy Of A Teenager! I Love How She Doubts Herself, And Is Super Guilty When She Makes A Desicion. It Reminds Me Of Of Me Alot. I Actually Had To Go To Therapy, Too. I Love This Book, It's Simply Sweet. I Also Love How It Seems To Be Half Ruby's Story And Half Ruby's Journal. I Read this Book In One Day. This Is A Quick, Funny, And Light Read.

Rating - 4/5

Release Date - 7/28/2009
