I found an interesting book yesterday called Skeleton Creek by Patrick Carman. I haven’t had the chance to read it yet but the premise is intriguing. Written in dual formats, the actual book portrays only half of the mystery and the clues to solve it. The rest can be found online in the form of video diaries made by Sarah, one of the story’s main characters.
The book follows Ryan and the records he keeps in his diary while the videos are made by Sarah as they try to solve the mystery at the heart of the book. I’ve seen some positive reviews online and am keen to have read and watch the videos. There are a few websites dedicated to the mystery that I’ll need to check out too. The second book in the series is set to be published in October 2009 for those not satisfied with the book’s apparently cliffhanger ending.
Does anyone have any other suggestions for good reads this Winter?
