Dude! This book was crazy! I'd read a few others blogs about it and checked it out.So Violet Ambrose is a teenager like any other. She's been best friends with Jay forever. He's always been there, but it's different this year. He's "grown up" and basically gotten hotter over this last summer. While it was usually just the two of them, but now all the girls who never noticed Jay before are following him around like little puppies. Violet is a bit bothered by this but unsure of why.
Violet is different, though, in that she can find dead bodies. She feels or senses tastes, smells, sounds that lead her to dead bodies. It's only really happened with a body once, but she does find animals that have been killed. As a kid she had a little graveyard where she put the animals to rest.
As the year progresses, she's dealing with normal stuff like school, friends, classes, and her feelings about Jay. But then a string of murders in the area stirs up and scares everyone. A serial killer is killing young girls. Violet discovers one of them and becomes more involved than she knows in the serial killers plans.
This book is mainly about Violet, but every few chapters you get a glimpse into a short chapter from the point of view of the killer. These chapters are freakin creepy, my friends.
I just had to keep reading this book. Each chapter I wanted to know if the killer had gotten someone else, if Violet had found a body or discovered the killer, and then of course, were Violet and Jay ever going to hook up and get together?? It was obvious she liked him...so I just had to see how they would end up. So all in all, this book is crazy suspenseful but also has a really great and sweet love story, too. I just loved Jay - he was like the sweetest guy ever. You should definitely check this one out for a strangely sweet and suspenseful read. Cool book.
