Oh my goodness! This is the most amazing book! A perfect read for any day. This is the third and final book in Wendy Mass's amazing trio. I have to say, I read all her books, and I love every one of them. The perfect twist of fantasy and modern day.
13 Gifts starts with a twelve-year-old named Tara Brennen breaks into her principles office in the dead of night and attempts stealing the principle's most cherished stuffed goat. Apparently this was actually a dare from her snobby friends in school. Of course however, Tara get's caught in the process and the principle leaves Tara to her parents to meet her doom. Tara's parents were originally planning to go to to a large island off the coast of Africa that summer, however when this incident occurred, her parents decide to leave Tara with her aunt in the sleepy town of Willow Falls and go without her.
Tara, having no other choice, gets on the train and is off. Once Tara gets to the town though, strange things start happening, things that have to do with a certain duck-shaped birthmark.
Now, if you want to know what strange occurrences are happening and who is the weird ducky woman, I would put reading this book at the top of your LOTTD list. It's definitely infinity thumbs up!!
I also recommend reading the other books by her, including 11 Birthday and Finally. This is actually not the only series she wrote (yep, there's more) she also wrote a series called, Twice Upon a Time.
Complete awesomeness as well :)
Ok, hope you take my recommendations; you won't regret anything!
