What about just "doctors efforts are futile"?? Any other opinions/ideas on this?<br /><br />All comments appreciated!sgfnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1940209088259004106.post-46235418712802065172012-10-28T03:11:54.024-04:002012-10-28T03:11:54.024-04:00I agree that the shorter version is better, and I ...I agree that the shorter version is better, and I like RedCard10's suggestions.

So the opening line would now read: "When his first love is killed in a prom night accident, teen genius Daniel stuns the world by bringing her back to life." For me, that's a hell of a hook. Also, consider editing the second line to "doctors efforts are proving futile".<br />RedCard10noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1940209088259004106.post-55767065019514878862012-10-27T10:11:44.781-04:002012-10-27T10:11:44.781-04:00This pulled me in!

I am curious if Daniel will find a way to save her or realize, in the end, that it wasn't the right thing to do to bring her back (you don't have this as a possibility in the last sentence, but this is where my mind goes). This makes me really curious, and I would definitely check out the book. <br /><br />As for the 2 loglines, I like the shorter version better. Good luck with this!<br /><br />Suzanne R.

Thanks!<br /><br />When his first love is killed in a prom night accident, teen genius Daniel stuns the world by using radical new research to bring her back to life. Now Jane’s body is failing, doctors’ efforts prove futile, and she’s more interested in her “near-death experiences” than in recovering. Daniel must find a way to save Jane or watch her die again.sgfnoreply@blogger.com
