There were no surprises in Gatlin County.
We were pretty much the epicenter of the middle of nowhere.
At least, that's what I thought.
Turns out, I couldn't have been more wrong.
There was a curse.
There was a girl.
And in the end, there was a grave.
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 overgrown gardens, 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 into the town's oldest and most infamous plantation, Ethan is inexplicably drawn to her and determined to uncover the connection between them.
The Sequel to Beautiful Creatures is entitled 'Beautiful Darkness' and is being released on October 12th, 2010.
I read this book two days ago, and I cannot get it out of my head. I loved it. The way it was written was just amazing, and the plot line was great. The ending ticked me off a little, but that could be because I didn't read it thoroughly. I was afraid there wasn't going to be a sequel, so I had to google it. I'm psyched that there is going to be a sequel though.
Has anybody else read Beautiful Creatures? If so, what did you think of it?
