A very good book. I still need to read the novella but Hold Me Closer was fresh and very good. After reading so many YA books, they start to have the same pattern, but this was a new thing for me and it wa very well done. You should deffinetly give it a go Leea.


Gwennie (blessedwannab) The Novella was a bit different, but they are both good. I can't wait for the next one.


Carina I didn't even know it was official that there was another book coming. But with that ending I had my hopes. Glad to hear there's more to come.

Stacia (the 2010 club) (stacia_r) | 5137 comments I haven't read the Novella yet, but I thought HMCN was one of the more interesting books I've read in the past year. The book seemed like one that both males and females would enjoy, and it had a lot of witty snark. I also thought having a necromancer for a main character was different from the usual PNR fare.

There was a small love story, but it wasn't a big focal point for those who aren't crazy about love stories. You really can't go wrong when one of the main characters is just a head...


Gwennie (blessedwannab) I keep popping onto her website to see if there is any updates about the sequel but so far there's been nothing, other then the mention that she's writing one.

I do the samething. =(


Gwennie (blessedwannab) It's a bummer, because I still think about this book.


Carina I don't think I've read anything similar and that's really hard to acomplish now days. I hope the sequel doesn't take more than normal.


Gwennie (blessedwannab) I've never read anything similar either. Though right around that time I read The Ghost and the Goth (The Ghost and the Goth, #1) by Stacey Kade , and that was surprised me as much as Necromancer did.

This was one of those books that I had been very reluctant to read because of all the good things I'd heard about it. I was afraid it couldn't live up to my *coughs*admittedly unfair expectations*cough*, but it really did. Also, this might seem a little ... I don't know, shallow or something, but I have an affection/(view spoiler) to unique character names. Samhain Corvus Lacroix ... talk about a name ;).


Gwennie (blessedwannab) LOL! I love unique character names provided they aren't too crazy. Sam had an awesome name for sure!

Stacia (the 2010 club) (stacia_r) | 5137 comments Yeah, but I never remember how to pronouce Samhain. It isn't pronounced how it is spelled, that's for sure!


Carina I love crazy names but I'm sure I'm not saying them right in my head, lol.

Stacia (the 2010 club) (stacia_r) | 5137 comments This might officially be the weirdest book trailer ever. Not sure why I hadn't seen it before now.
