He squeezed his eyes tight and felt his heart start beating harder in his chest. Slowly, knowing he was going to regret his decision, but having no other choice, he opened his eyes and turned around. There in his kitchen was a grotesque monster. It stood on two legs like a human, had two arms like a human but it was definitely NOT human! Rated MG Cover borrowed from DanielPriego on deviant art

Ever since her childhood, Rachel Olson Had always been a loner, but she found comfort in her books, while locked away in her rooms. She created a world of her own and lived in her twisted imaginations. Thinking beyond what man has ever thought of, living with the monsters she created, people thought she was abnormal, insane, but she wasn't. She was just different. She just found it simply interesting being a silent reader.

That was one of the saddest things about people: their most important thoughts and feelings often went unspoken and barely understood. © 2014 by 6ambeachparties. All rights reserved.

This is the original, unedited version of Light as a Feather, Book #1. This book was the inspiration for the Hulu Original Series. The revised version is now available in bookstores throughout the USA & Canada from Simon Pulse. McKenna Brady thinks her junior year of high school is going to be the best ever when she's welcomed into the elite group of popular girls at Weeping Willow High School led by blonde, gorgeous Olivia Richmond. Prior to junior year, McKenna was known in her small town as the girl whose twin sister died in a tragic house fire, and she's overjoyed at the prospect of redefining her identity. She has a date to the Homecoming dance with Olivia's handsome older brother, and a good chance of being elected to student council. For the first time since McKenna's parents divorced, things are looking up. But everything changes the night of Olivia's Sweet Sixteen sleepover birthday party. Violet, the shy, mysterious new girl in town, suggests that the girls play a scary game called Light as a Feather, Stiff as a Board, during which Violet makes up elaborate stories about the future ways in which beautiful Olivia, brassy Candace, and athletic Mischa will die. The game unsettles McKenna because she's already escaped death once in her life, but she doesn't want to ruin her friends' fun. It's only a game, she reminds herself.
