Feiwel & Friends
Micheline Helsing is a tetrachromat—a girl who sees the auras of the undead in a prismatic spectrum. As one of the last descendants of the Van Helsing lineage, she has trained since childhood to destroy monsters both corporeal and spiritual: the corporeal undead go down by the bullet, the spiritual undead by the lens. With an analog SLR camera as her best weapon, Micheline exorcises ghosts by capturing their spiritual energy on film. She's aided by her crew: Oliver, a techno-whiz and the boy who developed her camera's technology; Jude, who can predict death; and Ryder, the boy Micheline has known and loved forever.
When a routine ghost hunt goes awry, Micheline and the boys are infected with a curse known as a soulchain. As the ghostly chains spread through their bodies, Micheline learns that if she doesn't exorcise her entity in seven days or less, she and her friends will die. Now pursued as a renegade agent by her monster-hunting father, Leonard Helsing, she must track and destroy an entity more powerful than anything she's faced before . . . or die trying.
Lock, stock, and lens, she’s in for one hell of a week.
Why I Want It:
Creepy things, that is what i've heard from my fellow bloggers. Some very creepy things, but definitely worth it. I enjoy reading creepy books when I'm camping in the summer, it freaks me out, but Shutter will be the perfect book for me.
Why You Should Want It:
If you're a horror movie person, or a ghost person then I can't see why you wouldn't want to read Shutter. Reading Shutter will give you the chills worse then when you see a horror flick in the movie theatre.
That's my waiting on Wednesday for this week! Will you be picking up Shutter? What are you waiting on this week? Let me know in the comments!
