Eighth Day by Dianne K. Salerni
In this riveting fantasy adventure, thirteen-year-old Jax Aubrey discovers a secret eighth day with roots tracing back to Arthurian legend. Fans of Percy Jackson will devour this first book in a new series that combines exciting magic and pulse-pounding suspense.
When Jax wakes up to a world without any people in it, he assumes it's the zombie apocalypse. But when he runs into his eighteen-year-old guardian, Riley Pendare, he learns that he's really in the eighth day—an extra day sandwiched between Wednesday and Thursday. Some people—like Jax and Riley—are Transitioners, able to live in all eight days, while others, including Evangeline, the elusive teenage girl who's been hiding in the house next door, exist only on this special day.
And there's a reason Evangeline's hiding. She is a descendant of the powerful wizard Merlin, and there is a group of people who wish to use her in order to destroy the normal seven-day world and all who live in it. Torn between protecting his new friend and saving the entire human race from complete destruction, Jax is faced with an impossible choice. Even with an eighth day, time is running out.

Evangeline looked around in horror. She was standing under the nighttime sky in a wet mist, alone and vulnerable.

My Top Ten Books that led me to need more.... or read more...
Most of these introduced me to more genres..
Twilight introduced me to YA...
The Dollhouse Murders I read in 6th grade and got me reading chapter books.
The Sweet Pickles series made me want to read books when I was little. It was the first books I remember reading on my own.
Grover was my favorite kids book before I could read...
The rest were the ones that grabbed me for a particular genre....
