Narration Toward Books Bliss (Crestview Academy #1)

Lauren Myracle brings her keen understanding of teen dynamics to a hypnotic horror story of twisted friendship.

When Bliss’s hippie parents leave the commune and dump her at the home of her aloof grandmother in a tiny Atlanta neighborhood, it’s like being set down on an alien planet. The only guide naïve Bliss has to her new environment is what she’s seen on The Andy Griffith Show. But Mayberry is poor preparation for Crestview Academy, an elite school where the tensions of the present and the dark secrets of the past threaten to simmer into violence. Openhearted, naïve Bliss is happy to be friends with anyone. That’s not the way it has ever worked at Crestview, and soon Bliss is at the center of a struggle for power between three girls—two living and one long dead.

Notice Containing Books Bliss (Crestview Academy #1)

I was soooo excited when I ran across this at the library and after I read the book jacket, I couldn't wait to get home and start it. Word to the wise: If you have this book on you tbr list, Don't subject yourself to this kind of literary torture. This is truly the worst book I have ever read!!! When I read the jacket, I was thinking it would be reminiscent of the 1970's horror films that I loved, but boy was I ever wrong. The book was all over the place and not at all scary.(other than the

I have mixed feelings about this book. On one hand, it was a very interesting portrayal of life during the early seventies. I really loved Bliss's character. She was sweet and because she was so naive the background of the portrait she was in was that much more vivid. There were black pages between chapters with quotes from The Andy Griffith Show, commercials of the time, and Charles Manson. They were one of the highlights of the book, in my opinion. I only wish that Myracle would have spent

Meh... it was ok. 2.5-3 stars maybe. ***Actually NO- looking back it was MAYBE 2 stars if Im feeling generous. Dont waste your time. Very cool premise, very lackluster book. And if you are a cat person- REALLY JUST DONT! I dont know if youve ever been in a situation where you cant quite see how bad it is while youre in it, but once youre removed, you can look back on things much more clearly. Thats kind of how I feel about this book. Im actually quite disappointed in myself for getting lulled

So what can I say about this book without giving anything away? Wow! And I mean Wow!If there is one thing that I love about Lauren Myracle it is her backbone. She is more than willing to tackle difficult topics and cut right to the heart of the matter. Of course this means that some readers will find something in there which they will find offensive which seems to land her in the site of those who would like to regulate what we are allowed to read. I say dont be afraid of a book which is

Whoa, I just breezed right through this in two days. Crazy.So basically, this book is about a girl named Bliss In the Morning Dew. Why is she named that, you ask? Well, her parents are hippies and she's been living on a commune in a tent up until the beginning of this book. She's living with her conservative grandmother, and she feels really out of place when she goes to school for the first time. She is super loving and friendly, having lived with hippies her whole life, which made her pretty

What a fantastic read. Bliss tells the story of a friendship gone horribly wrong, playing out against the backdrop of the Manson murders and the subsequent trial. It's weird and frightening and thought-provoking. I can't recommend it enough.

I enjoyed this book but I was hoping for more spooky or scarier moments throughout the whole book. I think it just needed a little more hair raising moments.
