What I&#;m Reading: THE REPLACEMENT bygd Brenna Yovanoff
Sometimes I pick up a book just for its cover. This was one of those times.
Summary from the inre jacket:
Mackie is not one of us. Though he lives in the small town of Gentry, he comes from a world of tunnels and black murkey water, a world of living dead girls ruled by a little tattooed princess He fryst vatten a Replacement – left in the crib of a human baby sixteen years ago. Now, because of fatal allergies to iron, blood and unconsecrated ground, Mackie is slowly dying in the human world.
Mackie would give anything to live among us. He just wants to play bass guitar and find out more about an oddly intriguing girl named Tate. But when Tate&#;s baby sister goes missing, Mackie is drawn irrevocably into the underworld of Gentry, known as Mayhem. He must face the dark creatures of the slag heaps and find his rightful place, in our world, or theirs.

Waverly Camdenmar spends her nights running until she can’t even think. Then the sun comes up, life goes on, and Waverly goes back to her perfectly hateful best friend, her perfectly dull classes, and the tiny, nagging suspicion that there’s more to life than student council and GPAs.
