The Book of Time by Guillaume Prevost

Advanced Readers Copy - 2007 - Book #1 of a new series

A statue; a coin; an old book. They look as dusty as everything else in the Faulkner Antiquarian Bookstore, where 14-year-old Sam Faulkner seeks his father, who's been missing for days. But when Sam slips the coin into the statue, he's swept back in time -- to Scotland in 800 A. D. -- where he must find both the statue and another coin in order to return to the present. It's the first step in an adventure that will take him to ancient Egypt, World War I, even Dracula's castle -- and a mystery that will end only when Sam saves his father, or loses him in time . . .

I LOVE the Zpack. I'm allergic to penicillin, so when I get infections I get the zPack and it works.

Hope you feel better, NMZ... :-)

Lily Dale : Awakening by Wendy Corsi Staub

Book Description

Calla thought that her boyfriend breaking up with her in a text message was the worst thing that could ever happen to her. But just two weeks later, her mother died in a freak accident, and life as she knew it was completely over. With her father heading to California for a new job, they decide that Calla should spend a few weeks with the grandmother she barely knows while he gets them set up.
To Calla’s shock, her mother’s hometown of Lily Dale is a town full of psychics—including her grandmother. Suddenly, the fact that her mother never talked about her past takes on more mysterious overtones. The longer she stays in town, the stranger things become, as Calla starts to experience unusual and unsettling events that lead her to wonder whether she has inherited her grandmother’s unique gift. Is it this gift that is making her suspect that her mother’s death was more than an accident, or is it just an overactive imagination? Staying in Lily Dale is the only way to uncover the truth. But will Calla be able to deal with what she learns about her mother's past and her own future?

I knew I forgot to do something on that update! :duh:

Wow, two pages of posts already? Good to see I haven't missed too much. I'm checking in and confirming. My reveal was sent out yesterday! YaY teenswap! :bananacheer:

I'll be out this afternoon around 2pm, and I'm not really sure when we'll be back 'cause after we're done setting up, I'm pretty sure there's a supper... but it's a supper, so we'll be back at a reasonable hour. I don't think it'll be an issue for play, etc.

Let's swap! :drool:

stellarv - March 20, 2008 05:01 PM (GMT)
I'm having a real rough day and haven't sent my reveal out. I'll do it NOW! :giggle:

I'd like to see Pepper's reveal, please!

Pepper's Reveal
Hellbent by Anthony McGowan

user posted image

Conor O'Neil is in Hell. No, really. While chasing his dog, he got run over by an ice cream truck, and now he's sentenced to eternal damnation. He's stuck in a corner of Hell specifically designed for his maximum torture - lined with bookshelves and droning educational radio programs. Then he realizes that his personal version of Hell might be someone else's idea of Heaven - and vice versa. He sets out on a filthy, funny, and forbidden journey to search for his opposite number, accompanied by his repulsive pet dog, a depressed cross-dressing Viking, and Clarence, his personal devil. Can he do it? Conor is hellbent on finding out.

Book Description
For nineteen-year-old Harriet Morton, life in 1912 Cambridge is as dry and dull as a biscuit. Her stuffy father and her opressive aunt Louisa allow her only one outlet: ballet. When a Russian ballet master comes to class searching for dancers to fill the corps of his ballet company before their South American tour, Harriet’s world changes. Defying her father’s wishes and narrowly escaping the clutches of the man who wishes to marry her, Harriet sneaks off to join the ballet on their journey to the Amazon. There, in the wild, lush jungle, they perform Swan Lake in grand opera houses for the wealthy and culture-deprived rubber barons, and Harriet meets Rom Verney, the handsome and mysterious British exile who owns the most ornate opera house. Utterly enchanted by both the exotic surroundings and by Rom’s affections, Harriet is swept away by her new life, completely unaware that her father and would-be finacé have begun to track her down. . . .
