After the demise of Amanda's only relative, her grandmother, the young woman and a group of her friends travel to Amanda's old family cottage, which she inherited, in order to go through her grandmother's things before selling the cottage.
In the attic, Amanda and her friends discover a strange, but captivating antique mirror, which seems rather out of place in house, styled in a traditional Ukrainian manner to keep the memory of Amanda's grandmother's home country.
But this is no ordinary mirror-it holds a sinister secret.
A malevolent reflection of Amanda comes to life, a perfect but evil copy that begins to stalk them. As the line between reality and illusion blurs, a terrifying game of cat and mouse unfolds. Amanda must race to protect her friends and uncover the truth behind this entity before it's too late. The cunning reflection's prey is Amanda, but it can't get to her until it isolates her completely, which means taking out all of the people the girl loves: her friends, her family, everyone...And it's not going to stop until then.
How do you escape a monster that not only looks exactly like you, but also moves and acts just like you and even possesses all of your memories?

Trapped In My Amnesia
"Sweetheart wake up. You're at the hospital." I looked up and saw the same woman hovering over me. "Oh...okay." I opened my eyes fully and noticed that I was already in the hospital bed. Why on earth did she have to wake me? "So why am I here?" I asked confused. "Well," she said pulling a short and skinny woman into the room. "This very sweet lady saw you on the side of the road and called 9-1-1." I looked up at her and she threw me an evil look. In a way, she seemed strongly familiar. I looked away slowly diving my eyes back into the direction of the nurse. "Before we leave you, I just wanted to let you know that my name is Julia. You can call me whatever works best for you. Julia, Nurse, Nurse Julia. Whatever. I'll be right back with your papers." Sixteen-year-old Abigail Moore, also referred to as Ginger by her boyfriend Cameron Wood, has lived a terrible sixteen years.

Once Abigail's mother got put in jail for suspected murder of Abigail's older sister, Julia, Abigail is forced to live with her aunt. Abigail and her aunt get along very well, and she grows up safe and in no harm. Although her life and goals seem set straight and simple to her, her mother and others are always watching, just waiting in Abigail's shadows for the perfect time to strike, and take their next victim in the creepy and deathly darkness of Brett Creek in Colombia Falls, Maine. Abigail's developed amnesia from her horrible past makes it hard for her to live, but the people she fears most in life, make it easier to find the pieces that are missing to complete the puzzle. ******************************************* Also, please vote this for the 2018 Watty's!! ;)Complete
Whispers From Pine Haven
There are things a mirror cannot reflect. Like guilt. Like grief. Like the truth about the child you were never supposed to raise. Zariah didn't move to the small town of Elmsbrook to start over - she came to disappear. At 26, with scars no one sees and a daughter who speaks to things no one else hears, Zariah has learned not to ask too many questions. She's a mother by survival, not by design. Haunted by memory gaps, dreams of hospitals that don't exist, and a recurring fear of her own reflection, she just wants to make a life for Nova - quiet, clean, and far away from her past. But Elmsbrook is not clean. And the mirrors here don't just show your face - they show who you used to be. Or worse... who you were meant to become. --- Nova is six years old. Bright. Curious. And wrong in ways no one talks about. She speaks to the mirror in her bedroom like it's an old friend. She sings lullabies she shouldn't know. And she wakes up some nights with black eyes that fade by morning. She doesn't remember being someone else. But the mirror does. And it's time she remembered. Caleb thought the worst day of his life was the day his daughter Lina died in his arms. But grief is a liar - and the mirror offered him a deal. One daughter, split in two. One raised in silence. The other raised in love. One became Nova. The other was left behind. Now, years later, the fragments of the bargain are waking up - and Caleb is pulled back into the storm he thought he escaped. But what he finds on the other side of the mirror isn't just his daughter. It's the part of himself he buried to forget her. 💔 Three broken souls. One split child. A mirror that feeds on memory.

Nova is changing. 🩸 Because the mirror isn't just a portal. It's a parasite. And it's hungry for families like heComplete

N-n-n-n-no, we've already been through Friday." "Thursday was yesterday, dear." "But I-I just woke up on a Friday morning, like two hours ago." "Andie, we've talked to you about skipping taking your pills." And then the hallucinations would get worse. They were so realistic Andie could never tell reality apart from illusion.

She had to find a way, but for some reason, life didn't want her to leave.Complete
The Tether : Tale of a Restless Soul
Amanda Fulwood has always felt out of place. Since she can remember, she was never capable of distinguishing the real from the fake, her mind constantly questioning whether she lived what she remembered or if it was just an outstanding dream. There's always this voice in her head, this coldness so sudden whenever she comes back to it. As bone-chilling as the air in a morgue, the feeling never fails to keep her up at night. It only got worse over the years, her visions turning more and more vivid, constantly wandering further away from this realm every time. Living in a small town has its perks, especially when you're the mayor's daughter, but it also comes with a handful of disadvantages. Her reputation as the local nut-job precedes her, and when she's found naked on the school football field, it only furthers their assumptions. Once caged and once freed, Amanda still struggles with the reality she is to face, one where just maybe, she really is insane. Or maybe, her mind is the keeper of something darker, sinister even. For the small town of Milton Oaks, crime is a non existent hassle. So when Amanda's memories seem to correlate with the events of the darkest nights in town history, she's left with a mystery on her hands. One that holds all the explanations she craved, for all the years plagued by those thoughts. But going down that route is a path of no return. Once Pandora's box has been opened, there's no closing it back. Among all the questions Amanda has, the only one that is hers to answer is, "Can she handle it?" Read the book and find out😉

Like, mutant-level things... Lauren, Luc's dead twin sister, hid something from everyone. Something important that may have lead to her demise and that could lead to ours. Hunters are in town.

In the wake of ridding Oakwood of Wanderers, other dangers come creeping in and they're somehow linked to Luc's absent twin. The past returns to haunt the mutants in inconspicuous ways. Riley's life is yet again in jeopardy, but this time she's not alone. Luc and his family are all thrown into the teetering balance. More secrets are uncovered. A trap dawns on them all. Invisible threats start crawling from all directions. Who is the real enemy? TW : behaviours of depression and PTSD are displayed. I don't name them, but one of the character will be struggling a lot. It may not be suitable for everybody. Other adult matters are briefly included, but nothing explicit or intense. Rewriting specifications : the main points of the story and end of the book will remain the same, am just going to change a few ways of getting there and adding some extra spice.
