Have Pen, Will Travel: The Answer

The Answer

I decided on reading the book I was thinking about. Then another one just like it (both short NR stories).

Then, when I still couldn't sleep, I started Shattering Glass by Gail Giles. It's a YA book for my YA class that I'm totally enjoying. It's a mystery, and a darn good one. Why does Young snap? What is Rob's dark secret? And just what is Glass out there to do?

PS- If y'all want to see my blog that is my database assignment for my YA class, it's Lindy's 265 Blog. As of right this instant (5:04 AM, Monday, August 24th, 2009), there's nothing there yet. Soon, my pretties, soon.
