About this title

Synopsis

Written by some of today&;s most exciting teen authors, Vacations from Hell offers five unique takes on a universal experience&;unforgettable trips.

This third Hell collection features stories of vacations that take a serious turn for the worse when paranormal elements interfere.

Claudia Gray&;s teen witch falls for the wrong guy on her family&;s yearly beach trip,

Cassandra Clare&;s heroine confronts a vengeful and powerful woman while taking in the Jamaican sun.

The cruise ship in Sarah Mlynowski&;s story carries some dead, soon-to-be-dead, and even some un-dead passengers aboard.

Libba Bray takes us to a town in Eastern Europe with a dark and bloody past.

And a paranoid madness born in the French Revolution reaches across time to turn sister against sister in Maureen Johnson&;s tale.

From the Back Cover

Life's a beach . . . and then you're undead?

in this must-have collection, five of today's hottest writers&;Libba Bray (A Great and Terrible Beauty), Cassandra Clare (City of Bones), Claudia Gray (Evernight), Maureen Johnson (13 Little Blue Envelopes), and Sarah Mlynowski (Bras & Broomsticks)&;tell supernatural tales of vacations gone awry. Lost luggage is only mildly unpleasant compared to bunking with a witch who holds a grudge. And a sunburn might be embarrassing and painful, but it doesn't last as long as a curse. Of course, even in the most hellish of situations, love can thrive. . . .

From light and funny to dark and creepy, these stories have something for everyone. You definitely won't want to leave this collection at home!

Store Description

Established in 1991, as family run used bookstore with thousands of gently read books, in stock to chose from. How it all came about I like to read and in about 1987 the house got full. The spare bedroom was literally boxed in. Then in May of 1991 the garage over flowed and then it happen the books had to go as their was no more room in the house or in the garage. So the Book Shop was opened. Well I'm still here and a lot more books have passed through the door of our shop the Ye Old Bookworm. All I wanted was a quite little used bookstore. Well that's how it was suppose to happen. We started with 69,873 and growing to well over 170,000. we got so many book we don't even know what we got. I never planned on being rich and famous. Well I'm still not rich, but the old man is really cleaning up (he's the janitor) and a lot of folks know us now so were sort of famous. We would like to get to know you too. Specialty: General Stock of Paperback and Hardcover, covering just about every subject, most titles listed are Out-Of-Print. Too many too list on line. We Strive to list all of our Hardback books and only a selected few of the Paperback. So if it is not listed that doesn't mean we don't have it.
