The Hazards of Working at a Bookstore Vol. 1.6



There were actually some real hazards, or should I say irritations at work last night. But as my blog is about the books that I want to buy after working, I won't go into those things. Both books I'm going to talk about in this blog are Teen books. Not that I got to spend much time in that section last night, but I did see these as I was straightening.




First is Human.4 by Mike A. Lancaster. It is a science fiction story. The main character's name is Kyle. Kyle goes to a hypnotism show and agrees to go up on stage and get hypnotized. When he wakes up, everyone other than those hypnotized are different. In a way, they've evolved, or in technological terms, they've been updated. Telephones, TV's, Computers, none of them really work anymore, although there is a strange language running across them. All the other humans are kind of zombie like. I can't wait to read this one. I will either check it out, or a Nook again soon, to read it on.




The 2nd book is called A Touch Mortal by Leah Clifford. It is a "paranormal romance" according to my bookstore. I'd call it another angel story. Our main characters name is Eden, fitting then that she is going to be swept up by a fallen angel named Az. I'm not exactly sure what happens, but I know that somehow Eden ends up not being actually living, or dead, and is sucked in to the battle between heaven and hell. Some reviews I've found mention maybe ghosts? I don't know, but the plot sounds good, and I also see it is a planned trilogy. So again, something I'll be checking out soon.
