WoW: The Girls are Never Gone by Sarah Glenn Marsh

This bookish meme tells the blogosphere what we’re waiting patiently (and sometimes not so patiently) for! It’s hosted by Jill over at Breaking the Spine!

Dare Chase doesn’t believe in ghosts.

Privately, she’s a supernatural skeptic. But publicly, she’s keeping her doubts to herself—because she’s the voice of Attachments, her brand-new paranormal investigation podcast, and she needs her ghost-loving listeners to tune in.

That’s what brings her to Arrington Estate. Thirty years ago, teenager Atheleen Bell drowned in Arrington’s lake, and legend says her spirit haunts the estate. Dare’s more interested in the suspicious circumstances surrounding her death—circumstances that she believes point to a living culprit, not the supernatural. Still, she’s vowed to keep an open mind as she investigates, even if she’s pretty sure what she’ll find.

But Arrington is full of surprises. Good ones like Quinn, the cute daughter of the house’s new owner. And baffling ones like the threatening messages left scrawled in paint on Quinn’s walls, the ghastly face that appears behind Dare’s own in the mirror, and the unnatural current that nearly drowns their friend Holly in the lake. As Dare is drawn deeper into the mysteries of Arrington, she’ll have to rethink the boundaries of what is possible. Because if something is lurking in the lake…it might not be willing to let her go.

Why I’m Waiting: Super thanks to my job because I never even knew this was a thing until I was asked if I wanted to purchase it. Then I read the synopsis and stuff and knew I had to get it. This sounds so BAD ASS! Now the cover should have been way better, but I’ll accept this weird one because the only thing I think is wrong with the current one is that its too dark. I couldn’t even tell what it was at first. (Granted that is more than likely just on the small picture on the computer, but will look better in a hardcover’s normal size in person!)

What about you? Have you heard of this one before? Did you know what the cover was right away? Let me know in the comments!
