The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer by Michelle Hodkin

So I'll start of by saying I wasn't sure what to expect going in to this book. This young adult novel had mixed reviews, but don't let it discourage you. This book was definitely unexpected.

Mara Dyer wakes up In the hospital following a tragic accident. Unfortunately, Mara is the only one who really knows what happened that night in the abandoned asylum. A rebellious teen adventure goes wrong. Mara is left questioning herself and haunted by nightmares. Mara convinces her family to move from their home in Rhode Island to Florida. Mara is enrolled in a prestigious private school where she meets Noah Shaw.

Noah Shaw is the boy with the bad reputation and the "I don't care" attitude. He is loveable, sweet, and simply gorgeous.

"The boy-if he could be called that, looking like he belonged in college, not high school-wore chucks with holes worn through, no laces. Slim charcoal pants and a white button down shirt covered his lean, spare frame. His tie was loose, his cuffs were undone, and his blazer lay in a heap beside him as he lazily leaned back on the palms of his hands. His strong jaw and chin were slightly scruffy, as though he hadn't shaved in days, and his eyes looked gray in the shade. Strands of his dark chestnut hair struck out every which way. Bedroom hair."

Mara does not have the best of luck making friends at her new school, especially after getting the attention of the hottest boy in school. Noah tries his best to charm Maya, but she's reluctant. Maya admits she's broken.
"..please don't argue with me when I tell you that there is

something seriously wrong with me ...there's nothing anyone can do to fix it."
Noah -"Let me try"

And that was the moment I started to fall in love with Noah Shaw.

As their story unravels the author takes you on a dark adventure that keeps you captivated and second guessing yourself until the end.
