The Killing Game by emilydaniielle

"Let's play a game, yeah? I ask you a question and if you don't give me the correct answer, you get shot. I like to call it the killing game," I smirk deviously. "And what do I get out of it, huh?" he snaps at me. I place my finger on my chin as if I was pondering what he had asked me. "Well, for starters, if you answer correctly, you don't get shot." ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Once innocent Ava Cooper witnesses the death of her best friend at the age of fourteen, she begins seeking revenge on the men that were involved, tracking them down one by one and murdering them at age 21. She found pleasure in killing the men who ruined her deceased bestfriend's life and she didn't feel guilty about the fact either. . . to anyone else anyway. When she runs into West Livingston, her neighbor, she hates the fact that he won't stop trying to get her to open up and that he's distracting her from her sole purpose of being in Los Angeles: to avenge her best friend. They say opposites attract but what happens when people completely alike begin to fall for each other also? ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Book Reviewed by #LetsWriteSkills Book Cover by @perseaphone Began writing: 03-03-17 Ended writing: 06-10-17 a novel by clffoconda™ ©

After he assaults her, Mia's world crumbles. Chad twists the story, making it seem consensual, and soon, rumours and explicit photos spread, leaving Mia ostracized and broken. When she's on the verge of giving up, Mia finds solace in an unexpected place-a new phone gifted by her only friend, Andy. But when Mia sees a TikTok video mocking her trauma, posted by Chad's girlfriend, Hannah, she blocks her on social media out of sheer rage. The next day, Hannah disappears. At first, Mia doesn't think much of it-until it happens again. Another bully vanishes after Mia blocks them online, and the chilling discovery of Hannah's body with the word "Blocked" carved into her skin raises terrifying questions. Is Mia somehow responsible? Or is the phone she now carries imbued with a dark, mysterious power? As Mia grapples with guilt, fear, and a growing sense of control, the line between justice and vengeance blurs. What will happen when she blocks Chad himself? And more importantly, will she lose herself in the process? Is the phone a tool of justice or a curse?

Levittown by siremay

"Pretty girls like you get lost in these woods all the time, Alexa." On the night of Sebastián's annual Beginning of Summer Bash, amiable and adventurous Melody Tryniski went missing. What might have appeared as a juvenile escapade - a casual incident in eerie Levittown, Utah - turned into a missing person's case. Nobody knows what happened, but what they do know is that Melody was last seen with best friend Alexa King and boyfriend Logan Price. After two months with no trace of her, she returns to Levittown unharmed, unresponsive, personifying the town itself: solemn, eerie, quiet. However, Melody's long-awaited return is cut short when she's found brutally murdered in the comfort of her room. Questions begin to arise and it seems everyone in Levittown believes someone from her group of friends committed the awful crime. With outside media taking an interest in a town that's best left alone and a terror-stricken town willing to accuse anyone of the murder, Alexa King must find the truth behind Melody's death. But the truth is not always simple, it can sometimes be dangerous - and, as the scandalous revelation comes to the surface, she realizes she's challenging something more sinister. °°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°° [Featured on Wattpad's Mystery Page: Bright Young Minds] [Previously won Best of Mystery/Thriller hosted by Wattpad's Mystery page] [Won Best Mystery/Thriller in The 2018 Readers Choice Awards] © all rights reserved Abigail F.

Get A Life | ONC2023 Shortlist by OnceUponASonder

While her best friend Cassidy snacks on brie and boys in France, Darcy Li-Quinn must face her last year of high school and the unpredictable wrath of her sister, Danica, alone. Darcy's plan for dealing with Danica and her heinous friends is simple-be invisible. But first, she's promised Cassidy she'll do 'one brave thing'. Mustering the courage to say 'hi' to the cute boy on the bus, Darcy expects rejection or indifference. She doesn't anticipate a grumpy ghost with unfinished business who needs her help. Suddenly, a quiet year of flying under the radar looks increasingly unlikely. *** Rationally, Hunter Viera knows that his brother's death wasn't his fault. But that doesn't stop his guilt about Archer invading his every thought or lessen the grief sitting heavy in his chest. Changing schools offers a fresh start, and Hunter's plan is simple-be invisible. But he hasn't counted on Darcy, or her ludicrous claim that Archer speaks to her from beyond the grave. Suddenly, a quiet year of sitting on the sidelines looks increasingly unlikely. *** This is a story about hearts and hope and public transport. This is Darcy and Hunter's story (and a little bit Archer's too). *** 'Get A Life' is my entry for Open Novella Contest 2023 and is inspired by the following prompts. 20. You finally build enough courage to talk to that cute someone you see every day on the bus. Their face turns dark as they respond "You shouldn't be able to see me." 9. There's an urban legend that's been circulating for years about a taxi cab that doesn't take you where you want to go, but where you need to go. One night, you stepped into this cab.
