Zara collects phobias the way other high school girls collect Facebook friends. It's little wonder, since she's had a fairly rough life. Her father left when she was a baby, her stepfather just died and her mother's almost given up - in fact, she's sent her to live with her grandmother in cold and sleepy Maine to 'keep Zara safe'. Zara doesn't think she's in danger; she thinks her mother just can't cope.
Zara's wrong. The man she sees everywhere - the tall, creepy guy who points at her from the side of the road - is not a figment of her imagination. He's a pixie. But not the cute, sweet kind with little wings. Maine's got a whole assortment of unbelievable creatures. And they seem to need something - something from Zara...

Need by Carrie Jones
Need is an excellent example of what real writing is. You'd have to be nuts to go past this in a store without picking it up. Personaly, it's one of my favourite books. I would read it over and over again. Zara White captivated me into a world only a book as well done as this one could do. Every scene explained well, it was like a movie in my head.
A turn-paging, un-put-down-able book for a fabulous teen read. Carrie Jones has inspired me with this wondrous world she has created.

"Need, by Carrie Jones"
This book has you sitting on the edge. I found myself constantly thinking about this amazing novel at school, work and even when I was out with friends. I thought this book was great from the start and makes you want to read more. It's scary, romantic and gets your adrenaline running. I really enjoyed this book.
