    About this ebook

    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.

      There are some great stories in this anthology. Each of them caught me off-guard in some way, either with a surprise twist or just a character who was far more than I'd thought she was. A great read.
    • 5/5
      Only read the preview. LOVE IT!
    • 4/5
      Paranormal YA stories, mostly with a romance component and even more predominantly with a twist that ranges from easy to see coming (Mlynowski) to pretty darn creepy (Clare, at least in one line at the end of the otherwise conventional “girl rescues boy from monster” story that threatens to upend the story altogether). Quick and quirky enough to deserve a read, if this is the kind of thing you like.
