Hi crazyworld. I haven't had much time to read lately so I'm still getting through Nineteen Minutes. I'm about 2/3 finished. The trial is just beginning and the prosecution has asked Alex to recuse herself. I know there's a big twist with Josie coming. I can feel it. I agree with you that the story is heartbreaking. It's made me think about school shootings in a whole new way.

Therefore, now her publicist is trying to do damage control but they've re-cast a different girl. Thank goodness!
Ok so I ended up reading The Pact instead. I think I should have read the others you recomended first. I liked it but did not LOVE it. I don't know why. As far as DF comment she should know better!! Especially being in the acting field. Do you know who the other girl they recasted is? Sorry I haven't been around in a while ha ha I love the recomedations though

I love her books! She is a great author. Does anyone know if she is releasing any of her books as movies to buy? I know that they are on Lifetime every now and again but i would love to actually buy them.

my book club chose "change of hearts" couple months ago. I couldn't get into the book as fast as I should and with all the details she addes I started to mix the charachters. Of course I couldn't finish the book on time for our meeting, but I am giving her a second change with Salem Falls. BTW, you can find cheaper books at Costco or Sams Club if you have membership.. Good readings

I think i have enjoyed 10th circle the most. The comics to go witht he story were awesome. Just read salem falls back to back and found it a bit funny that 2 teenage redhead girls both freak out and cut off their hair
