Need by Carrie Jones


What do you do when your stepfather suddenly dies of a heart attack...your mom sends you to live with your grandmother in Maine...you find out that you are a Princess...and that you are in love with a werewolf...that your grandmother is really a weretiger...and that your real father wants to trap you in order to lure your mother, the queen, to his glamoured abode???

Author Carrie Jones helps us figure out what to do in her novel Need.
When Zara moves in with her grandmother, she finally becomes un-numb...the first time since her father's death. Zara meets new friends at school...and new arch-enemies. Zara even falls in love with Nick, who is absolutely perfect (except for his wolfish tendencies).
But when her real father comes knocking at her door, Zara must figure out a way to keep everyone she loves safe.

Quick moving and tense, give this book to readers who miss "Twilight".
They won't be disappointed.
Also---for scary-ish books, don't forget Simon Holt's novel: The Devouring.

Happy Scary Reading!
