The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer by Michelle Hodkin Published by Simon And Schuster on September 27th 2011 Genres: Paranormal, Fantasy, Young Adult, Romance Pages: 452 Goodreads “Thinking something does not make it true.

Soon afterwards, a number of disturbing incidents unfold in England: an unmanned ship is wrecked at Whitby; strange puncture marks appear on a young woman’s neck; and the inmate of a lunatic asylum raves about the imminent arrival of his ‘Master’.
