"You can't have everything." "Why can't I?" He shouted. I stretched my hand, giving him the jacket. "Because that's not how it works." Assuming he was reaching for the jacket, I moved closer but instead he pulled me by the arms and secured his hand around my waist. "Then how can he have everything he wants?" Seth said, his voice was a whisper in my ear, his face beside mine, his jaw grazing my cheek. I flinched away. **** Alyssa Lucille is rich and young, she's sixteen. That's it. The good part is over.

Miami, giorni nostri. Elizabeth Sandrey ha appena perso i genitori a soli sedici anni. Un paio di anni più tardi, deve occuparsi lei della sorella minore Emily e con l'aiuto di Chris, Elizabeth riesce a stabilirsi in un nuovo appartamento, in una nuova città, trovare lavoro e iniziare una nuova vita, mentre deve ancora finire il suo ultimo anno di liceo. Crede di aver appena trovato la sua stabilità, quando Matt entra nella sua vita. Un ragazzo all'apparenza perfetto che non accetta un "no" come risposta. Ma anche lui ha qualcosa nel suo passato che sta cercando di superare. Dal capitolo 20: "«Le persone vogliono ciò che non possono avere.» gli spiegai. «Tu vuoi uscire con me solo perché ti ho detto di no. Se accettassi, avresti raggiunto il tuo obiettivo e passeresti velocemente a quello successivo. Ma non ho voglia di sprecare il mio tempo per dimostrarti che ho ragione.» Non riuscii a guardare i suoi occhi fino alla fine e li evitati nascondendomi in un'espressione stanca. Era ormai da qualche giorno che ci stavo ragionando. Sperai che facendogli capire il suo stesso comportamento forse mi avrebbe lasciato in pace, così non avrei più avuto il problema di dover combattere quella maledetta infatuazione. «Credi davvero che io sia così superficiale?»" In questo libro i cliché del teen romance vengono ridicolizzati ed allontanati con repulsione. La protagonista si trova nel pieno della transizione da adolescente ad adulta e, sforzandosi di essere pragmatica in ogni aspetto della vita, sembra quasi ostacolare la sua stessa storia, dando al lettore una visione diversa dell'amore eterno ed incondizionato di cui si legge fin troppo nei libri per ragazzi. L'oscillazione tra ilarità e serietà è costante, il tutto condito dalla forza indipendente della giovane protagonista. ORA DISPONIBILE SU AMAZON KINDLE!

'They wore uniform grey, their expression hard and distant, their muscles taut with expectation, as if at any moment they were ready to lead an assault, to carry out orders, to kill, to die. And yet they were. Kingston had trained these children to kill at a word, to obey their masters without question. They were machines, the ultimate weapons in modern warfare. Children, as young as seven and as old as eighteen, stood impeccable and fearless, but it was what was hidden in their minds that was to be feared most of all.' Nineteen-year-old Charlotte Owens has entered her final year at Kingston Academy and, together with her best friends, she plans on making it through the year in one piece, away from the scrutinising eye of the headmaster and the founder's son. However, when she discovers that she has been thrust into the role of Head Girl, working alongside a boy she can hardly stand, not only are her plans for anonymity destroyed, but her plans for making it through the year at all seem to be in danger of becoming a wistful dream. Charlotte finds herself faced with the monstrous task of learning to play a game for survival in a world that seems determined to destroy her. Not only fighting for her life, Charlotte must also fight to gain control over the genetic alterations that plague her mind, in an effort to become the soldier she must be. A dark and tense tale of the battle between good and evil, Altered brings to life a strange and deadly world full of power and intrigue, as well as casting light on many secrets that so many hoped would remain undiscovered.
