Anna Dressed in Blood

Postby Paper-Hearts<3 » Tue Apr 16, 2013 1:10 pm

“I’ve seen most of what there is to be afraid of in this world, and to tell you the truth, the worst of them are the ones that make you afraid in the light. The things that your eyes see plainly and can’t forget are worse than huddled black figures left to the imagination. Imagination has a poor memory; it slinks away and goes blurry. Eyes remember for much longer.”
― Kendare Blake, Anna Dressed in Blood

This has to be one of my favorite book series... ever. Anna Dressed in Blood, by Kendare Blake. Anna is a ghost, basically. A powerful one, whose hair defies gravity and dress drips blood with black veins snaking up her arms 'n' stuff. This is kind of a transition-type thing, like she's in the middle of changing into her 'other' form, the one that's normal. I debated adding Cas (or my favorite, Thomas <3) in the background but... This is kind of a private Anna moment.
Me and my horrible backgrounds. ;_;

Seriously, if you're in to action, horror, comedy, romance, and paranormal genres then you need to check this book out. Yes? Yes.
Summary on the back of the book:
“Cas Lowood is no ordinary guy - he hunts dead people. People like Anna. Anna Dressed in Blood. A beautiful, murderous ghost entangled in curses and rage. Cas knows he must destroy her, but as her tragic past is revealed, he starts to understand why Anna has killed everyone who’s ever dared enter her spooky home. Everyone, that is, except Cas… Just your average boy-meets-girl, girl-kills-people story."
I don't want to reveal any spoilers beyond the minor ones I've already given, so I'm done. c:

Thank you guys!

@~ThisIsTheFuture~
When you have the time and money you should totally get it. 'Girl of Nightmares' is the sequel to 'Anna Dressed in Blood', like Jayfrost said. owo And thank you!

@Jayfrost
Yus. Gahhh I love it why isn't it as popular as Twilight? *cough - no sparkly vampires I guess -cough* (no hate on twilight lovers or anything) ლ(ಠ‿ಠლ)
And thank you! I love me some stalkers. >v>
