  <default-description>&lt;p&gt; Afterward, Terri will tell everyone that, from the beginning, she knew something terrible was going to happen on spring break. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; Something bad was going to happen. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; She knew. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; It was supposed to be the perfect vacation: hot guys, impeccable tans, and no parents. But for two high school seniors, an innocent car ride will drive them into the heart of their worst nightmare. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;i&gt;Feathered&lt;/i&gt; is a provocative and eerie tale that flies readers from safe, predictable suburbia to the sun-kissed beaches of Canc&#250;n, Mexico, and into mysterious Mayan ruins, where ancient myths flirt dangerously with present realities. &lt;/p&gt;</default-description>

    <body><![CDATA[Kasischke effectively develops the voices of the three young women off on spring break. What happens to one of the world is frightening and all to real. When one of the girl disappears she really vanishes from the story itself in that the reader has no idea if she is alive or dead.

    <body><![CDATA[This is one of those books where the plot sounds so good (3 high school girls go to Mexico for spring break and 2 of them are drugged and assaulted), but it didn't live up to my expectations at all.  I kept reading hoping it would get more interesting, but it really didn't.  A definite shrug.]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This book was pretty good, but quite disturbing you could tell something was going to happen. And I pretty much read the first 180 pages waiting for it. The characters were interesting though, and I liked the alternating view points, even though it kind of telegraphed who the victim would be. ]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This book is anxiety inducing.  It wasn't my most favorite book ever read because the subject matter is really disturbing.  But it gets a lot of stars because the author deals with this subject plainly, yet sensitively.  It is a fast moving story wrapped up in a good lesson for teens.]]></body>
