Unspoken
"Kami Glass is in love with someone she's never met--a boy she's talked to in her head since she was born. This has made her an outsider in the sleepy English town of Sorry-in-the-Vale, but she has learned ways to turn that to her advantage. Her life seems to be in order, until disturbing events begin to occur. There has been screaming in the woods and the manor overlooking the town has lit up for the first time in 10 years. The Lynburn family, who ruled the town a generation ago and who all left without warning, have returned. Now Kami can see that the town she has known and loved all her life is hiding a multitude of secrets--and a murderer. The key to it all just might be the boy in her head. The boy she thought was imaginary is real, and definitely and deliciously dangerous"--

This felt very fresh to me! It's not a dystopia! There aren't any vampires! There are fully-realized female characters with goals and desires aside from dating vampires! LOVED the lady characters–Kami, Holly, and Angela were all unique and believable and awesome. Really unique look at lady friendship and the jealousies that can come up around pretty girls and how that can be overcome. Hooray!
The actual plot is a Gothic supernatural romance that's basically so old school it feels fresh and unique again. Very suspenseful & I'll definitely read the next one eeee.
pretty sure that was cheating, I'm going to die if I don't read the sequel :S
I laughed so hard my stomach hurt & my children demanded to know just what was so funny. And this despite quite a lot of not-funny in the book...
Upon rereading, I have to say, I had forgotten just how laugh-out-loud funny this is, between the scary parts and the sad parts. When I grow up, can I be Sarah Rees Brennan?
