Let Me In

This is actually a picture of the movie poster, but it was the book that I read. Let Me In is the terrifying yet moving tale of two lonely adolescents who stand together against the world. It begins with the horrific discovery of the body of a teenage boy, emptied of blood. Our twelve-year-old hero is personally hoping that revenge has come at long last- revenge for all the bad things the bullies at school do to him, day after day. While he is fascinated by the murder, it is not the most important thing in his life. A new girl has moved next door- a girl who has never seen a Rubik's cube before, but who can solve it at once. They become friends. Then something more. But there is something wrong with her, something odd. And she only comes out at night..
This book was a little strange at first, but it is one of those ones you have to keep reading to find out what will happen.
