Ever Present Danger by Kathy Herman
So..I wasn't willing (or able) to pay $17 for the hardback of Long Way Gone (this months selection) and the paperback isn't coming out until late August AND the library doesn't carry it! I'm determined to only have selections that are available at the library. But, if you are already reading Long Way Gone, obviously enjoy yourself!
I am really liking this book, Ever Present Danger. I'm going to read the 3 books in this series. You can find out about the author and the other books in this series, as well as the other ones, on her website. http://www.kathyherman.com/ They are available at my library, so hopefully they are available at yours, too!

Here is the description of this book:
Twenty-eight-year-old Ivy Griffith comes back to the little town of Jacob’s Ear, Colorado after ten years of popping in and out of drug rehab in Denver and carrying around a secret from high school that could send her and three of her friends to prison if she ever decided to tell.
Wrought with guilt, she knows admitting the truth is the only way to be set free, but mustering the courage to confess what she knows to the sheriff won’t be easy, especially when it will mean that everyone else in town will find out—including her unsuspecting parents.
But when circumstances take a sudden, bizarre turn, and her three guilty friends are taken out of the scenario, Ivy must decide if telling the truth even matters if no one can corroborate what really happened. Of course, someone else CAN—someone she least expects—and that’s what will make this one a nail biter!
This story is based on I Corinthians 15:33, “Do not be misled: bad company corrupts good character”—and is guaranteed NOT to put you to sleep!

Ok, so I feel bad that I have been so out of it this month. We JUST got internet this weekend...it has been such a challenge! I read the other book...definately worth the read, but I agree about reading library books. I got the other one at Christmas. Looking forward to this series...if I can ever find the time to go get a library card! How is this one going?
The book is great! It's fun and suspensful (sp?) and has a great message. I finished reading it, my friend had to order it from the Christian Book store so she should get it soon! My daughter is reading it right now. I'm on hold for the second on in the series at my Library so I should have it by the first week of July. Woohoo!
I hear ya..it took me 2 weeks to read this book, usually it would have taken maybe 3 days! It's just a crazy time of year.
Hope your moving went smoothly!
