Beautiful Creatures
Dream On
Falling. I was free falling, tumbling through the air.
“Ethan!”
She called to me, and just the sound of her voice made my heart race.
“Help me!”
She was falling, too. I stretched out my arm, trying to catch her. I reached out, but all I caught was air. There was no ground beneath my feet, and I was clawing at mud. We touched Þ ngerÂtips and I saw green sparks in the darkness.
Then she slipped through my Þngers, and all I could feel
was loss. Lemons and rosemary. I could smell her, even then. But I couldn’t catch her. And I couldn’t live without her.
I sat up with a jerk, trying to catch my breath.

Beautiful Creatures
Lena Duchannes is unlike anyone the small Southern town of Gatlin has ever seen, and she’s struggling to conceal her power and a curse that has haunted her family for generations. But even within the murky swamps and crumbling graveyards of the forgotten South, a secret cannot stay hidden forever. Ethan Wate, who has been counting the months until he can escape from Gatlin, is haunted by dreams of a beautiful girl he has never met. When Lena moves to town, Ethan is inexplicably drawn to her and determined to uncover the connection between them. It could change everything.
With Beautiful Creatures, Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl have created a gothic fantasy that will haunt you long after you’ve turned the last page! (Ages 12 and up)

Just a bit wordy, and I was glad when it was over. Still it is a good story. Not quite my cup of tea but for the group out there that likes the supernatural it will be for you!!!

I really loved this book. I couldn't put it down and am so excited to read the next installment. This book is like if the harry poter books got together with the twilight books and made a baby, the best of both worlds.
