The Time Will Come #54

The Time Will Come is a weekly meme hosted by Jodie at Books For Company, where we can spotlight those books that we've had sitting on our shelves for too long. Books that we really want to read but never seem to get around to.


I have way too many books and not enough time to read them all. I think it's an addiction. But I have to confess that I think 90% of the reason I bought this book in particular is because of the pretty cover. Look at it! So, so pretty. Shallow, I know! One day I may actually find the time to crack open that cover and actually read it.

Mikayla doesn't want much: just to rock out to her favorite band, become the next Kwiki Stop video gaming champion, and keep her Q-tip habit under control. What she does want is the sight of the sudden inexplicable dark auras around everyone to stop. Problem is, those auras are demons and Mikayla is the last trait holder with the power to ban them. Which is a total buzz kill. 

To make matters worse, the town folk of Sulphur Springs don't look the same, and her classmates are a little dark in the eyes. There are murders, suicides, reckless skinny-dipping, gratuitous use of Q-tips, and newfound powers that Mikayla must learn to control. 

Her past becomes present when a shape-shifter tells her what her true identity is, and how to keep the demons of Hell from nipping at her Converse. Through him she'll discover who to trust, who to kiss, and how valuable her abilities are to the right beings. Because the evils of Hell aren't staying down without a fight... 

Or without her soul.

  2. I remember this one, but I don't remember reviews of it or if anyone thought it was great or awful. I think maybe it came out when I first started blogging. Not sure. I'd love to see your take on it. Read it!
