Body Double

Title:Body Double

Author(s):Tess Gerritsen

Summary:
Boston medical examiner Dr. Maura Isles literally
meets her match—and must face a savage serial

killer and shattering personal revelations—in the
brilliant new novel of The Surgeon and The Sinner.

Dr. Maura Isles makes her living dealing with
death. As a pathologist in a major metropolitan
city, she has seen more than her share of corpses
every day—many of them victims of violent mur-
der. But never before has her blood run cold, and
never has the grim expression "dead ringer" rung
so terrifyingly true. Because never before has
the lifeless bodu on the medical examiner's table
been her own.

Yet there can be no denying the mind-reeling
evidence before her shocked eyes and those of
her colleagues, including Detective Jane Rizzoli:
the woman found shot to death outside Maura's
home is the mirror image of Maura, down to the
most intimate physical nuances. Even more chill-
ing is the discovery that they share the same birth
date and blood type. For the stunned Maura, an
only child, there can be just one explanation. And
when a DNA test confurms that Maura's mysteri-
ous doppelgänger is in fact her twin sister, an
already bizzare murder investigation becomes a
disturbing and dangerous excursion into a past
full of dark secrets.

Searching for answers, Maura is drawn to a sea-
side town in Maine where other horrifying
surprises await. But perhaps more frightening, an
unknown murderer is at large on a cross-country
killing spree. To stop the massacre and uncover
the twisted truth about her own roots, Maura
must probe her first living subject: the mother
that she never knew . . . an icy and cunning
woman who could be responsible for giving
Maura life—and who just may have a plan to take
it away.

My Review:
This book was AWESOME! It's such a lifetime movie type of book. It's got the thriller part and the horror part and it's even got the romance part. It captured my attention within the first 3 or 4 pages. Now I just have to go back to read the rest of the series. I didn't realize this was the 4th book in the series. lol. But I highly recommend this book to anyone who's into that category of books.

Uglies

Title: Uglies

Author(s): Scott Westerfield

Summary:
Tally is about to turn sixteen, and

she can't wait. Not for her license—
for turning pretty. In Tally's world,
your sixteenth birthday brings an
operation that turns you from a
repellent ugly into a stunningly
attractive pretty and catapults
you into a high-tech paradise
where your only job is to have a
really great time. In just a few
weeks Tally will be there.

But Tally's new friend Shay isn't
sure she wants to be pretty. She'd
rather risk life on the outside.
When Shay runs away, Tally learns
about a whole new side of the
pretty world—and it isn't very
pretty. The authorities offer Tally
the worst choice she can imagine:
find her friend and turn her in, or
never turn pretty at all. The choice
Tally makes changes her world
forever.

My Review:
My Opinion, this book is not the best. I got about 55 pages into it and it still hadn't captured my attention, so it doesn't look like I will be reading this series.
