The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer

Wow. What. A. Ride. Love. This. Book. Enough said? From the first page of this book by Michelle Hodkin, I was HOOKED. Mara Dyer is a teenage girl who just survived a building collapse that killed her best friend and two others. Her family moves with her to Florida to get away from it all. On her first day of school she meets the It boy of the school, Noah Shaw. DREAMY. Definite top ten fictional boy material, that Noah is. Anyway, as Noah and Mara become unlikely friends, Mara slowly believes she is going crazy, seeing dead people from her past. She is convinced that she needs to be committed. Things get weirder and weirder, until one night when Noah knocks on her window to tell her her brother Joseph has been kidnapped and they need to rescue him. The next day, she isn't sure it was real or a dream or a hallucination. When Mara realizes people around her tend to end up dead, she and Noah figure out why they have been brought together. Can Noah convince her to control her powers or will she be lost to the dark forever? And are her friends really dead? What an ending! Can't wait for the next installment!! Will Mare and Noah finally kiss? Will her kiss kill him? Is Jude really still alive? Can Mara control her power? What will her family say when they find out about her? What would you do if you had their power? And where did the power come from? If you want a page turnin' great thrill ride, pick up The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer as soon as you can and let me know what you think. Great pick for NoDids Burt! Happy reading my friends!
