The Ones Who Come Back Hungry
Author: Amelinda Bérubé
Publisher: Sourcebooks, Inc.
ISBN: 1728290619
Category : Young Adult Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 357
Book Description
From the author of Here There Are Monsters comes a chilling supernatural horror that is part terrifying vampire legend and part modern exploration of toxic relationships wrapped up in a novel about hunger, yearning, and loss. After the sudden death of her perfect, popular older sister, Jo and her family feel empty. But days after crying at Audrey's graveside, Jo stumbles on the impossible: Audrey, standing barefoot in the snowy backyard. But Audrey isn't breathing. She's still marred with the evidence of an autopsy. She's decaying. And worst of all, Audrey is hungry, and only human blood can curb her relentless appetite. Jo knows she can put her family back together; she just has to figure out how to fix Audrey. She hides her sister and sustains her with her own blood, determined to figure out how to keep Audrey with them. When her search takes her to her sister's grieving inner circle of friends, Jo finds herself drawn into their fold—and to Audrey's boyfriend, Sam. As Jo slips further into her sister's old life, Audrey's hunger and jealousy grow more insatiable. She's not going to sit back and let Jo replace her or, worse, discover the secrets hidden beneath her golden girl facade. As Jo struggles to juggle everything she will be forced to decide which of her loved ones needs her the most —and who she's willing to sacrifice to save them.

Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en

Book Description
In this handbook on tennis, Alastair Higham demonstrates that championship tennis is harnessed momentum at its best. He offers advice to help readers improve their match play at different levels -whether in club matches, county matches, international tournaments or simply with friends. Unlike other tennis guides, it does not concentrate on improving skills (strokes, tactics, concentration and movement). Instead, it discusses the battle of competitive tennis matches - the ebbs and flows, the turning points, why momentum switches and how and when to use your skills to gain control.
