Still mysteries and pieces to put together. Every single person has a secret. The question is... What're you hiding? And why? Remember... If you obey all the rules, you miss all the fun. I suck at descriptions honestly just read with book ;) Here's a fun snippet: "You kissed them?" Chase whispers to me. "No! Well yes and no, kind of. Now's not the fucking time," I stop myself from rambling. "Put the gun down," Louis demands. "Or we will shoot!" "What if I shoot first," I challenge. "Five of us and two of you. You knock down one or two of us we'll have your name on a gravestone," Louis grins evilly. "Are you underestimating my shooting skills?" I question. "Do you want to find out," Louis dares. "No! No the fuck we don't," Chase yells. He shoots me a 'what the fuck is wrong with you' look and I shrug.

Entropy by HopelessThinker300

Tanner is a normal teenage boy with a picture-perfect family...but sometimes appearances are deceiving. Tanner knows better than anyone that a closed system tends to disorder. And the chaos of his own mind is threatening to send him down a path from which there is no turning back. "Even if they don't come out and say it, I can tell they're both sort of waiting. Expecting. That my brain will crumble and I will break. That order will fall into Disorder. But this is different, I know that it is. It's not the same. Not the same as last year. If that was a pit of darkness I was drowning in, this is the opposite. This is a tunnel of strobing lights that my brain is careening down, and I'm not sure where it ends or that I want it to."

The Follower by LateNightStories12

Life has evolved and more technologies appeared. The internet is the main brain of these technologies, but that doesn't mean that it's safe. It is said that we are only using 10% to 15% of the entire internet, so where is the left of it that's the question. That's not the main point the point is how people could use the internet. Some could use it for social life, some could use it for doing research and some could use it to track you down and know every single move you do. They could hear everything, know your next destination. Maybe now you're being followed and tracked down by someone but you just don't know. Just as the characters in the story. The story is based on possible events that could occur in these days. Nobody knows what's out there on the internet, and what's in people's minds. Beware the internet, beware of the people around you, beware of the people you give trust to, beware of the mysterious follower that stalks you that is obsessed with you without you knowing. * Story chapters will be published one by one as a tv series to make the reading part easier and give more excitement to what's coming* Thanks for reading.

Firebomb (The Jewel Project #2) by Wimbug

"Why is it always 'why' with you? Grow up already! Not all people are alike. You're good, I'm evil, you're naïve, I know how things are, and you're an idiot while I'm brilliant." With the jungle and Snitch Gravel left behind, Sam Grant thought the crazier part of life was over and he could now focus on his secret agent training and getting to know his new brothers. Before he can even get used to safety and comfort, everything goes downhill: his father goes ballistic, his cousin disappears and him and his brothers are called in to rescue a fellow agent from Snitch Gravel's base. Aside from sending them to battle countless henchmen, the Agency is also keen to keep them in the dark about their most important project - a project Sam and his brothers play a vital part in. Once again on the road, Sam must figure out how to do something he's never done before: infiltrate Snitch Gravel's base stealthily and come out unscathed. *** The story is completed. Sequel to Too Young Even if it's the second book in a series, the story is pretty stand-alone-ish. There are many characters, but it's easy to get the gist of them.
