Waiting On Wednesday: (Don't You) Forget About Me


(Don't You) Forget About Me

Synopsis:
Welcome to Gardnerville.
A place where no one gets sick. And no one ever dies.
Except...
There’s a price to pay for paradise. Every fourth year, the strange power that fuels the town exacts its payment by infecting teens with deadly urges. In a normal year in Gardnerville, teens might stop talking to their best friends. In a fourth year, they’d kill them.
Four years ago, Skylar’s sister, Piper, was locked away after leading sixteen of her classmates to a watery grave. Since then, Skylar has lived in a numb haze, struggling to forget her past and dull the pain of losing her sister. But the secrets and memories Piper left behind keep taunting Skylar—whispering that the only way to get her sister back is to stop Gardnerville’s murderous cycle once and for all.
My Thoughts: I love creepy towns and Gardnerville sounds like it is going to be one of the creepiest! Add in the fact that every 4th year people die/kill and you've got me completely hooked. The only downside is that June seems really, really far away right now.

  9. Awesome pick! This is my WoW this week too haha. It sorta reminds me of The Pied Piper but creepier (though I guess the original story is pretty morbid too).
