About Stacy Rourke
There is nothing worse than being put on the spot and asked to talk about yourself. For me it brings back that inevitable moment in a new school when the teacher would ask me to stand up, introduce myself and tell the class something about myself. I was always worried I would blurt out something stupid that I would get teased for. Something like, “My name’s Stacey and I like pickles!” Then for the rest of the school year I’d be known as the Pickle Girl and let’s be honest, no one wants that. So to avoid such a faux pas I will simply say that I love to write. It allows me to get my crazy out just enough that I can function as a normal member of society.
**MY REVIEW**
Dangerous, legendary and all around brilliant, Crane is the
perfect, chilly read!
Told in two POV’s, Crane seamlessly flows from the time
after the Revolutionary War to the bustle of cars today, both in a little,
picturesque town called Sleepy Hollow (yeah, I think of the show too!) with
each character telling you a little more- giving you one more piece of the
puzzle- but just little enough to have you sitting on the edge of your seat!
Centuries ago, the headless horseman rode, faster than light
on his steed as black as night, claiming the heads of the innocent and even the
not so as his own. Until the ultimate sacrifice was paid, lovers torn apart,
brothers in spirit separated and everything returned to the quiet.
Right now, looking for a fresh start, after her pompous
ex-boyfriend broke her heart and stole her refrigerator (No, I’m not joking!),
Ireland (Awesome name, by the way) is the first Crane to set foot into a town
that does everything it can to live up to its name, becomes everything but.
Beheadings, warnings in blood and a senile old man this book is everything you
could ever want to read and more!
Scary, with the ‘I must see what happens next- it is
essential for sane thought’ element combined with one of the most fun and
flirty chemistries I’ve read about in a while, Crane is just. Plain. Awesome.
And, how can I forget, you’re always left thinking, how can
you kill someone who is already dead?
My Verdict:
Just. Read. It!!
