McKinley, Robin    I have only read one book by this author and that is most likely because I haven’t had a chance to really look at her younger series.   It hasn’t really pulled me in.   Sunshine , the book I read, was good though meticulously detailed.   I enjoyed that though some people don’t so just be forewarned.   The story is about Rae Seddon, nicknamed Sunshine, who drives ...

His movements now began to be marked by the assurance which comes from ...

Tickets! I have tickets to the Springsteen concert!  (Well, one ticket, to be more exact, because of the changing dates (from Sunday to Monday) and not being able to go with the person I was originally supposed to go with -- he can't make it on Monday and I can't make it on Tuesday (that 7pm class, which I do have to attend), not to mention that I can't seem to get a pair of tickets for the ...
