Wake

        Maybe you like books which are creepy, but cool at the same time? Well, here's one for you: Wake. I first read about it in the newspaper, when my mom and I were browsing for books. It's storyline struck me as innovative and new, so I took the first chance to download it on my Kindle. I'll make sure to you that I didn't regret it! 
         This story, which is written by Amanda Hocking,  is mainly about a teenage girl, Gemma, who loves to experience late night swims in a secluded bay. She goes on swimming every night, until her swims are disrupted by the arrival of three fearless and drop-dead gorgeous girls. There is something sinister about them, and Gemma knows it. For some reason, they hook onto her and one day, Gemma finds herself partying with them in a cave located in the ocean. They give her some drink, and with a mysterious persuasion, they lure her into drinking it. After, she finds herself having awkward habits. The chlorinated swimming pool she loved to swim in, suddenly makes her itch and irritates her skin. The three girls whom she was repulsed by, suddenly draws her towards them. She knows that she has a secret, but what it is is the question. After a serious confrontation, the secret is out, and the battle for regaining her true self is on. Read this book, and I promise that it will have you hanging onto every word!
