For some reason I have an overload of new YA to read...and here they are! Some are real and sad...some are real and funny, some are fantasy...one is based on a real life incident. I love reading these in the summer.
"A delightful and enchanting novel that uses sly wit and assured style to subvert expectations while it always, unfailingly, entertains. I loved it!" —Kate Elliott, author of the Spiritwalker series
"What We Saw is a smart, sensitive, and gripping story about the courage it takes to do what’s right. If you’re looking for your next favorite YA author, look no further. Aaron Hartzler’s got what it takes." (Deb Caletti, National Book Award Finalist for HONEY, BABY, SWEETHEART)
"Fresh, funny, and full of heart: not to be missed." (Kirkus Reviews (starred review))
"A beautifully written story about two teens who find each other in spite of what might seem like insurmountable problems." (Examiner.com (5 star review))
From Amazon..."Imagine a time when the gods turn a blind eye to the agony of men, when the last of the hellions roam the plains, and evil stirs beyond the edges of the map. A time when cities burn, and in their ashes, empires rise."
Actually...after I finished this yesterday and thought about it more...the last part of it was really good...really good...which makes me wonder why I wasn't into most of it...hmmmm...
So...it is so hot here...so very hot...Den, Roxie, Lucy and I have aches, we are cranky, we are heated up and hot, and we are crabby. Nothing makes us happy this week. It's too hot to do anything fun! The AC is on constantly...even the refrigerator is warmer...sigh! The air is hot and heavy...a feeling of malaise is upon us. I hate walking outside in this kind of heat...and...its supposed to be this way through Friday!
All these two do is irritate each other! Roxie slammed into Lucy this morning...literally knocking her off of her little kitty feet! It's the heat!
Trying to stay cool, be cool and keep my cool!
