Jenny Pox

by JL Bryan

Jenny is a high school student with a big secret - even bigger than most high school girls' secrets.  Her touch can kill people.  Her father has helped her adjust to life without touching anyone and even though she is lonely, she knows this is what she has to do.  When she meets a boy who is immune to her poison, she sees hopes for her future for the first time.  But there's one big problem:  Seth is the boyfriend of Jenny's longtime nemesis, Ashleigh.  Then Jenny discovers that Ashleigh has a big secret too, and Jenny must use her power to destroy Ashleigh.

This was a good read.  Jenny, even with her pox, is relatable to any high school student who ever felt left out.  But her discovery of Seth and Ashleigh's powers changes everything.  I had thought this was a young adult book, but there are a couple of pretty intense sex scenes that lead me to believe otherwise.  "Jenny Pox" ends in such a way that it could be over, or there could be a sequel.  I'm hoping for a sequel.

I got this on Amazon for Kindle for $2.99.
