Beautiful Creatures: Beautiful Creatures

Autor Kami Garcia, Margaret Stohl
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 31 aug 2010 – vârsta de la 12 până la 17 ani
The first book in a lush gothic fantasy series for younger readers of Charlaine Harris and fans of Cassandra Clare.

Lena Duchannes is unlike anyone the small Southern town of Gatlin has ever seen, and she's struggling to conceal her power, and a curse that has haunted her family for generations. But even within the overgrown gardens, murky swamps and crumbling graveyards of the forgotten South, a secret cannot stay hidden forever.

Ethan Wate, who has been counting the months until he can escape from Gatlin, is haunted by dreams of a beautiful girl he has never met. When Lena moves into the town's oldest and most infamous plantation, Ethan is inexplicably drawn to her and determined to uncover the connection between them.

In a town with no surprises, one secret could change everything.
