Overview

Twilight fans-get ready to go back to the place where your obsession began. The woods behind seventeen-year-old Jayden James' home in Forks, Washington are a place of many things. They are his escape from the bourbon ghost of his mother, the tireless torment of the town bully, and the place where he first lays eyes on Alexa, the new girl in town-a girl who makes his heart feel as if it beats for the first time. Yes, the woods are his shelter. His haven. His hope. But... They are also a place best known for the town's storybook vampire/werewolf lore. The place where mysterious murders are about to shake up the town during the height of its annual Forever Twilight in Forks Festival. And the place where he just woke up with blood on his hands. Twilight gets a 21st century Frankensteinian twist with this electrifying debut, a page-turning reimagining of the cult classic that is timely, relevant, and deeply engrossing.

Captivating and Compelling Page Turner This book kept me guessing until the end! I had never read Twilight, but that didn't affect my read experience at all. It sucked me in all on it's own: ) I've since watched the Twilight movies and think this book is such a complementary, but original story. I was hooked from the get go and never fully predicted the outcome - but sure enjoyed the ride: ) Fingers crossed that there's a sequel because ...THE ENDING!!!!! - M Edelman - Amazon Canada review Great Read I have read a lot in this genre and Something About Alexa is among the best I have read. Relatable characters, gripping story line and many twists. And fun to return to Forks. Clever tie ins to the Twilight series. - B Smith - Amazon Canada review A Great Read This well written book was a pleasure to read. If you're a fan of murder mysteries or the wolves and vampires of the Twilight series you will love this book. Set in the beautifully described Pacific North West, I appreciate an author who can paint a realistic picture of the locale as it brings the story to life and made the characters all the more believable. Once I connect to the characters I'm hooked. Thanks to the author for a great tale. -LR - Amazon Canada review Spellbinding and Suspenseful As both a mystery and love story, Something About Alexa delivered on all fronts. Hockley does a fantastic job blending paranormal romance with a thrilling whodunit. The supernatural aspects pay homage to Twilight while bringing unique ideas to the table. I grew to deeply care about the characters, while also being kept on the edge of my seat as the clever plot unfolded. The ominous setting heightened the tension. -Andrii - Amazon United States review Purchased at my daughter's request--she loved it! Fantastic Twilight meets Frankenstein vibe - well written & full of unexpected twists. Well researched, mysterious, the pace is great and the character development is brilliant. Definite recommend. -Ebay man - Amazon United States review Fabulous page turner Something about Alexa grabbed me from the first page. The characters are well drawn and the description of place is so vivid, I could see the forest and smell the ocean. I enjoyed the degree of detail and ties back to Twilight, and what Forks has become post series. The author has done her research. The plot kept time guessing well into the novel. This is a great book for folks who like their stories rich, their characters relatable, and with suspense, myth and science rolled in. You don't need to have read the Twilight series to enjoy this book, though readers who are familiar will appreciate the allusions. A wonderful debit from an author worth watching. -Candice Neveu - Amazon Canada review Super great twist I enjoyed the story. It was extremely unpredictable and has you on edge the entire time. I would highly recommend this to people looking for a sci-fi Gothic type story! -Amazon Customer - Amazon Canada review
