Need by Carrie Jones. This book is the best yet! Zara White aka Phobia Collector moves to snowy Bedford, Maine to live with her spunky grandmother, Betty. Although, Bedford, Maine is cold as hell and a small town, her mother thinks that Zara needs a change of scenery after her stepfather's death.
Ever since, her stepfather has passed away by a heart attack, Zara begins seeing a tall man in a black cloak. This mysterious man seems to be following Zara everywhere she goes. All the way from Charleston to Bedford. Zara can't shake the feeling that this guy is bad news...a stalker. Who is this man and what does he want?
On the first day of school, Zara has a run in with a guy in a red MINI COOPER. When the guy emerges from his MINI, Zara can't tear her eyes off of him. Nick Colt, cross-country runner and stunningly handsome. They soon become friends...and more.
She befriends a small girl with orange hair named Issie and a guy in a wheelchair named Devyn. As soon as Zara makes friends, she also makes an enemy. Devyn has been seeing the same cloaked man too, and soon they come to conclude that the man is a pixie. A pixie? Yep, a pixie. This pixie isn't the kind who wears flowers and dances around in the snow. He's the dangerous kind that kidnaps young boys and feeds off them. Several times, Zara notices golden dust that the man leaves behind. Not only are the townspeople holding secrets of their own, ones that could alter Zara life forever.
This book was a little slow-paced, but Need was still BRILLIANT! I recommend this for fans of Twilight or Wicked Lovely.
Book cover! This book cover was stunning. I loved the golden lips and the tree branches at the bottom. It created a kind of winter wonderland scene. The tree branches are really that got me. What do you think? Props to the person who made the book cover.
