Rezensionen

Praise for Liv, Forever

"Secret societies and specters: two things I love. Liv, Forever is spooky, sexy, strange and shocking. A great read."
-E. Lockhart, Prinz honoree, NBA finalist, and author of We Were Liars

"A passionate love story with an intelligent sense of humor . . . A must-read."
-Marti Noxon, producer/writer on Buffy the Vampire Slayer , Glee , and I Am Number Four

"It's romantic, it's gruesome and you won't want it to end. Two severed thumbs up."
-Kendare Blake, author of Anna Dressed in Blood and Antigoddess

"Nimble and heartfelt, with knowledge rich and deep of what it means to be different."
-Anna Godbersen, New York Times bestselling author of The Luxe

"Amy Talkington paints an unforgettable tale that is both spine-chilling and heartwarming. Readers will die for Liv. "
- T onya Hurley , New York Times bestselling author of the Ghost Girl series

"A privileged boarding school setting, a sinister secret society, and a sweet romance that transcends even death . . . A pitch-perfect paranormal."
- Justine Magazine

"[Liv's death] should come as no surprise-and yet, somehow, it does . . . The story, a romance meets ghost story meets mystery, is well written and authentic."
- Cleveland Plain Dealer

"[Talkington's work exhibits] a sly, caustic sense of humor, a playfulness that can go dark fast."
-Dallas Morning News

"This quirky love story will appeal to teens who enjoy a good ghost story."
-VOYA Magazine

"[ Liv, Forever 's] gothic feel is what sets it apart from other boarding school stories, in addition of course, to the mystery at its heart . . . A ghost story, a love story, and a tragedy."
-BookTrib

"A snappy mystery . . . [and a] fast-paced story."
-Booklist

"Think Ghost meets The Sixth Sense , acted by the Brat Pack . . . relentlessly visual."
- Publishers Weekly

"An interesting mix of paranormal fiction, mystery, and romance . . . Liv is a likable outsider whose lack of understanding of [Wickham Hall's] traditions should resonate with readers who've ever felt like they don't quite fit in."
-School Library Journal

"Hits plenty of buttons for school-conspiracy and romance fans . . . The narrator-as-ghost adds an interesting twist."
-Kirkus Reviews

"A smart and emotionally affecting detective story . . . A must-read for anyone looking for a smart paranormal thriller with emotional depth."
-Reviewing the Evidence

"For your vicarious (read: imaginary) spring break . . . Order now."
-Daily Candy Dallas

"A ghost story overflowing with a creepy school, a mysterious society, and a love that just seems impossible . . . Liv, Forever is an extremely hard book to put down."
-Fresh Fiction

"A spooky conspiracy and a prestigious boarding school. It's elementary, dear readers, why this is a match made in heaven . . . Somebody set up the Ouija Board and bust out the candles."
-Forever YA

" Liv, Forever delivers gothic romance with Joss Whedon-esque delight. A meta-ghost story that will keep your blood chilled through the very last page!"
- Lex Hrabe , co-author of the Quarantine series

"Liv and Malcolm are the ultimate star-crossed artists-bound by a love of Banksy and Bon Iver, but separated by death."
- Jill Greenberg , fine artist and celebrity photographer

"Does a great job of expressing what it's like to be different through her various characters, while reminding us that things-and people-are not always what they seem . . . A wonderful read."
-Crimespree Magazine

"Fresh and intelligent."
-Annie Curtis, Youth Services Librarian, Gallatin, TN
