Hey there Earthlings, Alternatives and Trollers. Put down that mouse and lend an ear. Welcome to The Bandersnatch blog where we talk weird, wacky and wondrous. I'm The Bandersnatch and I have no idea what I'm doing.

Today's books I suggest are: Hollow by Celina Myers and The Storm by Rachel Hawkins

HOLLOW

by

Celina Myers

Mia Adair isn't even twenty-five yet, but she's starting to wonder if her peak has already passed. She's spent years working at her local bookstore a Job that was supposed to be temporary. As a kid she experienced a strange sort of fame within the paranormal community thanks to her inclusion in a book that revealed Mia's ability to talk with the dead. But that was then, and Mia's “gift” dried up once adolescence set in. These days, she feels like she's nobody special.

Until she dies in a tragic car crash and reawakens as a vampire.

Forced to leave behind everything she knew. Mia must choose to live with one of the two rival vampire families. The Bellamy and Sutton clans share a dark, complicated history that spans centuries. As Mia learns about their age-old traditions and extraordinary powers, along with their forbidden romances and betrayals, she's drawn toward two very different loves. And as she feels her gift returning, more potent that ever before, Mia realises she'll need it to protect innocent lives – and save the only family she has left.

THE STORM

by

Rachel Hawkins

St. Medard's Bay Alabama is famous for three things: the deadly hurricanes that regularly sweep into town, the Rosalie inn, a century-old hotel that's survived every one of those storms and Lo Bailey, the local girl infamously accused of the murder of her lover, political scion Landon Fitzroy, during Hurricane Marie in 1094.

When Geneva Corliss the current owner of the Rosalie Inn, hears a writer is coming to town to research the crime that put St. Medard's Bay on the map, she's less interested in solving a whodunnit than in how a successful true crime book might help the struggling inn's bottom line. But to her surprise August Fletcher doesn't come to St. Medard's Bay alone, with him is none other than Lo Bailey herself. Lo says she's returned to her home town to clear her name once and for all, but the close Geneva gets to both Lo and August, the more she wonders of Lo is actually back to settle old scores.

As the summer heats up and another monster storm begins twisting its way towards St/ Medard's Bay, Geneva learns that some people can be kist as destructive -and as deadly- as any hurricane, and that the truth of what happened to Landon Fitzroy may not be the only secret Lo is keeping.....
