We're having dinner this evening with Steve's mom and sister. On one hand it is nice to not have to deal with making dinner .... on the other..... (sigh)
I'm also reading a digital loan called PANIC by Lauren Oliver. She is the author of the dystopian Delirium trilogy which wasn't bad. This book is a present-day teen angst. I was hoping for another dystopian, but there it is. Here's a description:
Panic began as so many things do in Carp, a poor town of twelve thousand people in the middle of nowhere: because it was summer, and there was nothing else to do. Heather never thought she would compete in panic, a legendary game played by graduating seniors. She'd never thought of herself as fearless, the kind of person who would fight to stand out. But when she finds something, and someone, to fight for, she will discover that she is braver than she ever thought.
Dodge has never been afraid of panic. His secret will fuel him, and get him all the way through the game; he's sure of it. But what he doesn't know is that he's not the only one with a secret. Everyone has something to play for. For Heather and Dodge, the game will bring new alliances, unexpected revelations, and the possibility of first love for each of them—and the knowledge that sometimes the very things we fear are those we need the most.
Published 2014, it has 421 pages.
Glad it's almost the weekend.
Much love,
