I read this book because it had pretty good reviews. When I read the book I was expecting... more I guess... I just didn't find myself hooked in anyway. It didn't keep me on the edge of my seat, or wondering what was going to happen. It was one of those books that you kind of can figure out witho...
Antony has it pretty good. He's home-schooled, lives in a nice apartment in Manhattan and often gets to travel around the globe when his mother is on a reporting assignment for NBC. When she tells him her next one is too dangerous for him to accompany her, he does his best to talk her out of send...
Once again I wish there were half stars! This would be a solid 7 out of 10 for me - which means 3 1/2.It was a quick, easy read. Even so, you were able to experience the rolling emotions of the characters. You also care about the characters, which is always a good thing when a book is relatively...
They’re tall, thin and very quiet people, who put me on edge. The problem is, Sky was supposed to come over about an hour ago. We’re meeting up with some friends of mine at the water park. But her phone is going straight to voicemail, even though her car’s in the driveway. It seems like the only ...
I’ve never really been on a date in my life. Yeah, I know. Crazy, right? Not like anyone would believe me because… well, even though I don’t date, I definitely get girls. Which everyone knows. Which makes people believe I’m taking girls out left and right, but I’m not. Now that I think about it, ...
They’re both into everything. It further makes me wonder if they were ever a thing. An unease traces over my nerves, which is stupid. Rhodes can be with whomever he likes. I check my phone again for any word from Elias, but there’s nothing new. He’s probably at work. No, wait. Four hours earlier....
When I finish I try to put the cap on, just like the instructions say , only I almost drop it like three times in the process. My fingers aren’t working right. A hammering heart should not be affecting how well my fingers work. Now I’m supposed to wait. And wait. I stand and pace two steps b...
Three extra cars are parked in front of the house. My stomach sinks. “My cousin’s home. With friends.” “Right, the mighty Trent Mooreson.” Justin puts his car in park, turns it off, but doesn’t move. “He’s not mighty anything. He’s probably the only...
Weak. Whatever. By Monday things are slow, and on Tuesday it’s dead. I figure that cleaning up and doing all the “chores” Jason laid out for me last week will keep me busy, but I realize I’ll finish in a morning. Then what? I tell Jason I’m going ...
I mean seen him seen him. Yes, we see each other at classes or in the dining hall. But we don’t play chess anymore. We don’t spend any time together. I’m being stubborn. I know it. He’s the one with the single cabin. I could stop by any time on one of my nights off. But I ...
I can’t concentrate at home. I forget that I’m supposed to be mad about not driving, and stop rolling my eyes at Mom when she checks my blood sugar the moment I walk in the door from school. The lack of snark in my life for the past two weeks is starting to be disturbing, but I’m not sure if I ha...
