As Simple As Snow by Gregory Galloway
Publisher: Penguin Group
Where I got it: It was recommended by a friend.
One Sentence Summary: Anna, or Anastasia, Cayne is a slightly mysterious, or creepy as her peers would say, high school girl; who believes in voodoo and Houdini spells, the protagonist is a boy who falls in love with Anna and write obituaries together; Anna soon disappears, and only a string of clues left for him to figure out.
First sentence of the book: Anna Cayne had moved here in August, just before our sophomore year in high school, but by February she had, one by one, killed everyone in town.
First Chapter Review: In the first chapter, he begins to explain Anna and his life as he takes the reader back to how it all began, from Anna's unusual personality, friends, background, and clothes, to where he struggles to find something extraordinary in life.
Verdict: This book is something I would suggest to everyone, maybe not boys, and would read again to try to figure out the complications that the book holds.
Cover Comments: The cover shows a girl kneeling in a black dress, fishnet stocking stockings, and black boots. I'm guessing this is Anna. Underneath her is a picture of a snow angel in the snow, making it Winter when Anna disappears.
