Time to announce the July Sizzling Book Club selection!
This month's pick is Storm by Brigid Kemmerer.
This is the first book in a YA series with some paranormal elements, or mostly just elements (hence the series name, “The Elementals”). Here's the description:
Becca Chandler is suddenly getting all the guys– the ones she doesn't want. Ever since her ex-boyfriend spread those lies about her. Then she saves Chris Merrick from a beating in the school parking lot. Chris is different. Way different: he can control water–just like his brothers can control fire, wind, and earth. They're powerful. Dangerous. Marked for death.
And now that she knows the truth, so is Becca.
Secrets are hard to keep when your life's at stake. When Hunter, the mysterious new kid around school, turns up with a talent for being in the wrong place at the right time, Becca thinks she can trust him. But then Hunter goes head-to-head with Chris, and Becca wonders who's hiding the most dangerous truth of all.

I really enjoyed the action and the characters in this book – the heroine, Becca, is memorable, and terribly realistic as a teenager facing some crazy stuff in her life. I hope you will read the book and join us for the chat!
Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I have not stopped bouncing in my chair since you emailed me. 😀 My month = made.
Maybe by coincidence (?) B&N has the paperback at 40% off starting today, so it’s available for $5.97. Just wanted to throw that out there, too. 😀 http://www.barnesandnoble.com/…
I’ve been on a YA binge recently so…YAY! Let the angst-ing continue.
I can’t wait to read this one, and OH look…seeeeeeequels.
I’m in!
I’m excited. I previously bought/preordered all the books in this series based on a rec but haven’t started them yet. Can’t t wait to see what everyone thinks.
bought it. read it. loved it. thank you for introducing me to this great author and series!
Bought it. Reading it now. 😀 Excited to be a part of the discussion!
I know it’s a slow response, but EEEEEEEEEEE! I know YA cops a lot of flack for being trite and angsty, but Storm is GOOD. And YES to Becca being a memorable and realistic heroine—and I LOVED the boys, too, for the same reasons 🙂
