Shadow Hills ebook!

If you have a Nook or a Kindle here's a book you need to add to your collection!


If you haven't heard of the fanasticness that is this book, here's the summary for you:

His love captivated her... his secrets might kill her.

Since her sister’s mysterious death, Persephone “Phe” Archer has been plagued by a series of disturbing dreams. Determined to find out what happened to her sister, Phe enrolls at Devenish Prep in Shadow Hills, Massachusetts—the subject of her sister’s final diary entry.

After stepping on campus, Phe immediately realizes that there’s something different about this place—an unexplained epidemic that decimated the town in the 1700s, an ancient and creepy cemetery, and gorgeous boy Zach—and somehow she’s connected to it all.

But the more questions she asks and the deeper she digs, the more entangled Phe becomes in the haunting past of Shadow Hills. Finding what links her to this town…might cost her her life.
 
 
Did you know that both Amazon & B&N have readers for your desktop? How cool is it that you don't have to buy an ereader to ebooks?

Teaser Tuesday (13)

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:


Grab your current read
Open to a random page
Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page

BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)

Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers.

This weeks teaser comes from Shadow Hills by Anastasia Hopcus.


“It isn’t you,” a voice said behind me, deep & melodic.
I turned and saw him. Raven black hair and eyes that seemed to shift colors – gray, blue, and pale green.
I looked at the headstone, then down at my dirty and torn clothes.
“But it is me,” I whispered.
“It doesn’t have to be.”
The gravestone was changing, the letters shifting.
“You know who it is. You just have to wake up.” He put his hand on my shoulder. “Phe, wake up.”

Pg 1/2

I know its longer than my usual teasers but there there was too much good stuff on one page to pass up.
