The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer by Michelle Hodkin

This was such a great book!  I've found quite a few great books in a row!  Mara Dyer has had a hard year.  She remembers absolutely nothing upon waking up in a hospital bed surrounded by her family and nurses.  She soon learns that her best friends and boyfriend along with herself were in a horrible building collapse.  The weird thing is that she's the only survivor and the only one that really say what happened that night or why they were even in an old building.  She has such a hard time that her family moves south to Miami Florida to start anew.  Immediately Mara starts seeing her dead friends and is taken to the psychologist and given medication.  She's having more and more episodes that she has no control over and has no idea what they mean.  Things get even worse when she figures out that she has inadvertently killed people by just wishing they were dead.  To make things more interesting the school hunk, Noah, has taken an interest in her.  She it totally not wanting anything to do with him.  Isn't great love stories always how it starts out?  Eventually Mara and Noah find they have quite a bit in common and set off trying to solve all their problems together.  This was a great story with something new around every corner.  I didn't want to put it down, but I must warn you!!!  The ending will totally piss you off.  There will definitely be a second book, but Michelle throws a TOTAL left curve at you on the last page of the book that will leave you closing the book yelling dammit!!!  Will definitely visit Michelle Hodkins website to see what the second book will be and when it will be out!!  Happy Reading!!!!
