My W.O.W. creepy book of choice (what's yours?!)


DoubleWhen the sixteen-year-old runaway Chap is mistaken for a missing boy named Cassiel, his life changes dramatically. Chap takes on Cassiel’s identity, gaining the family and friends he’s always dreamed of having. But becoming someone else isn’t as easy as he hoped—and Chap isn’t the only one hiding a secret. As he teeters on the brink of discovery and begins to unravel the mystery behind Cassiel’s disappearance, Chap realizes that he’s in much deeper danger than he could have imagined.
After all, you can’t just steal a life and expect to get away with it.
Award-winning author Jenny Valentine delivers an explosive mystery where dark secrets, betrayal, and loss pave the way for one teen’s chance at redemption.

This book looks SO awesome...and SO creepy. I can't WAIT..It releases in February 2012 by Hyperion books... so..sigh. I must wait. 


Murder is such a dirty word…Envy (Empty Coffin Series #1) by Gregg Olsen: Book Cover
New York Times bestselling adult true crime author Gregg Olsen makes his YA debut with EMPTY COFFIN, a gripping new fiction series for teens based on ripped-from-the-headlines stories…with a paranormal touch.
Crime lives--and dies--in the deceptively picture-perfect town of Port Gamble (aka “Empty Coffin”), Washington. Evil lurks and strange things happen--and 15-year-olds Hayley and Taylor Ryan secretly use their wits and their telepathic “twin-sense” to uncover the truth about the town's victims and culprits. 
 
Envy, the series debut, involves the mysterious death of the twins' old friend, Katelyn. Was it murder? Suicide? An accident? Hayley and Taylor are determined to find out--and as they investigate, they stumble upon a dark truth that is far more disturbing than they ever could have imagined. 
 
Based on the shocking true crime about cyber-bullying, Envy will take you to the edge--and push you right over.

    I haven't heard of Double before, but I've seen Envy floating around book bloggerdom. They both look like they have the potential for great amounts of creepiness. You know....the kind of book that when you go to bed, you put it in the hallway 'cause you're too freaked to sleep in the same room with it?

    Oh...that's just me? Ok. Nevermind then...

    Thanks for visiting my WoW! And I'm an old follower. :)
