Lucy and Riley have a secret. Lucy hates Riley, but he is her guilty pleasure. She is crazy attracted to him and can't seem to stop herself. If has ruined her high school years, so far.

Riley lives right next door. The hockey star, and all around best looking student. He needs her help now. He wants to do all he can to stay on the team. This could be Lucy's chance for some payback.

Such a short but very hot story. These characters have an extremely shocking attraction. I found myself strangely enthralled. Now I cannot wait to read the next installment in this soon to be epic series. I give this read a 4/5 Kitty's Paws UP!

Dewey's and Caldecott

Midu Reads

It's a bit over a week until Dewey's 24-Hour Readathon on Saturday, APRIL 28, 2018.

Reader Sign-ups are open:

http://www.24hourreadathon.com/april-2018-reader-sign-ups/

There are over 700 people signed up already.

I've made a tradition of reading the 2018 Caldecott Award winner and some of the Caledcott Honor books as a change of pace between novels during the Spring Deweys. You can find the winners of the Caldecott, Newbery and other awards from http://www.ala.org/news/press-releases/2018/02/american-library-association-announces-2018-youth-media-award-winners

This is nicely compatible with the low-key Readathon I'm planning, since there is also a visiting scholar at my synagogue and the local Earth-Day celebration competing for my attention. I don't expect I'll actually read much, since I'd rather spend my time social media-hopping and cheering others on.

Lucid Living: A Book You Can Read in an Hour That Will Turn Your World Inside Out

Lucid Living: A Book You Can Read in an ...

Audio version: Content 3.5 stars, Narration 5 stars
The narration of the Audio version is really nifty.
Listening to it took less than an hour and time really flew by. The presented philosophy is interesting though I had had encountered it before in other works. I wouldn't call this book life changing but definitely worth reading.
