Hold Still by Nina LaCour (February 3, 2011)
Beautiful book. Caitlin was such a great character to read about, I felt her sadness and then I felt her happiness and guilt for being happy. I loved her tree house and really appreciated her parents. They gave her space, and in the end it worked out for them all. Great story.
Left Neglected by Lisa Genova (February 4, 2011)
This was a good book, though not as good as Still Alice. I had a hard time imagining what it would be like to live with Left Neglect. I couldn't imagine not seeing the left, but she wasn't blind her brain wasn't acknowledging left. It was so strange to me to find out that this actually existed.
North of Beautiful by Justina Chen Headley (February 15, 2011)
I loved this book, though I hated her father. Ugh, I wanted to slap him. I loved the trip to China the most because her mother was free there. Great book overall.
The Dead-Tossed Waves by Carrie Ryan (February 17, 2011)
I love this series and I appreciated that this was a companion to the first book. We got into the story many years later with Mary's daughter Gabry and this book did not disappoint. I'm thinking I will be purchasing these books because there is a third one coming out next month!
Trapped by Michael Northrop (February 18, 2011)
This book was chilling. I heard about this book awhile back but didn't want to be reading about people being stranded in a blizzard when we were having our own blizzards daily. Today, the weather decided to go up to 47 degrees (yesterday 54). Even better, I could see the grass so I decided I could handle the story. I couldn't imagine those kids handling the weather - 18 feet of snow, trapped in a school. The only negative thing about this book is that it ended so quickly. What happened? We only really know about Scotty's immediate outcome, but what about everyone else. I was so mad when I turned that last page!

If you have an "over the top"
Hogan Scarpe swing (aka casting), you can see how you would break this pane of glass at the start of your down swing. By being aware of the pane of glass your hands will drop Asics Onitsuka Tiger down to your side during the down swing, maintaining your lag (aka the slot - illustrated beautifully by< align="left">Belstaff Jackets Hogan in the photo on the right).
