Please join Chelsea and I in this buddy read if you can!

[Chelsea]

I can't wait!

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

yay!!! Are we ready for this one tomorrow??
I have Girl Scout booth sale for most of the day, but I'll start it later in the evening!

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

okay, I'm starting this one but I'll post tomorrow!

Goodnight!

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

Okay, I'm done with day 1

so far I'm a little confused with what's going on

3 POV are a little overwhelming but it's okay so far :)

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

eesh
okay, I'm 60 pages in and throwing in the towel.
I am just not enjoying this book

:( sorry, I'm going to stop reading it....

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

Nope, scratch that

I'll keep reading.....if Jacquelyn will jump in here
(or anyone else who wants to read this book!)

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

I'm here! I hope we enjoy it a little more. (:

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

yay!!!!! :D thx for joining me!!

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

no problem! how far do you plan to get on this one today? you said you were around 60 pages in, correct?

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

I think Day 4.
I'm going to try to read more at one time to see if it makes more sense....

so, what you should know ahead of time:

there are 3 POV
and so far they don't seem to know each other

:) that might help

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

Okay! 3 POV. Wow. It might be a little confusing at first for me. Was that the case with you?

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

Yes, it's so confusing...

okay.

So, I'm going to try to keep the storylines straight

Day one, I think:

Zan (view spoiler)[ Okay, Zan lost Leo
she found a note in one of his books from the day he died.
it had a girls name and phone number on it for Vanessa
She also received books from Leo's little sister (possible close friend before he died?) named Amelia (hide spoiler)]

Sienna (view spoiler)[
okay, Sienna tried to kill her self. she just got out of an institution
she's moved back in with dad
dad took her to the beach
he's getting married to Denny
Ryan is her little brother I think

She bumps into Owen
she's forgotten about Owen but he hasn't forgotten about her. They used to play together as kids (hide spoiler)]

Caden (view spoiler)[
hmm....Caden is in a dark place
drinking alot and meeting girls like...Eliza
but now, he's been kidnapped (hide spoiler)]

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

Day 2

Caden (view spoiler)[ has been kidnapped by his dad...huh
who is Sophie?? *sigh*
ugh and Caden tries to run
and the bodyguard treat him like luggage (hide spoiler)]

Zan (view spoiler)[ she meets up with nick
nick tells her he doesn't know anything about Vanessa
but that Leo asked him to lie
to lie and say he was with Nick on the day he died
......and Zan needs to understand what Leo was doing lying and being with Vanessa just before he died (hide spoiler)]

Sienna (view spoiler)[ she drags the fam to the community center
where Owen and Carly (another childhood friend) are playing in a band
they meet back up -
and Owen asks her out.... (hide spoiler)] AWW! Love it!

Persephone (view spoiler)[ and they get the report - she's going to hit
they are going to try to ship a rocket up and knock it out of the collision course. (hide spoiler)] they have no idea if it will work

<1 week

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

Day 3

Zan:
"We're the ones left. And we deserve to know the truth."
(view spoiler)[ wow, look like Nick is on board to go find this Vanessa too
they are off to a bar called Lulu's which is where the phone number goes to

she and Nick get on Nick's boat to head to lulu

ut oh...they lost cell phone :(

she got a number to Vanessa - looks like she used to work at Lulu's but not anymore.

now they are in the city but they've been stopped - the truck broke down and they are with an old woman who is waiting for her son. they got caught breaking in (hide spoiler)]

Caden (view spoiler)[
George is the bodyguard
Sophine is his father's....ugh, Girlfriend
Arthur is his father ?
Luisa - is the housemaid


and Caden is wondering how Carly and Ramona are taking his absence
sounds like they are his mom and daughter?

Caden doesn't remember ever visiting his dad
but the housemaid remembers him (lol and his love of bacon)

he's packing a bag and prepping to run away - by using a trip with his dad to do it.
He doesn't know where he's going

and their field trip...

Fenway Park

and they play catch.....after some arguing (hide spoiler)]

Sienna (view spoiler)[ OMG Owen called her out with rocks to her window
and they are going on a date! yay!
and he takes her for a ride on a closed carousel
he's so sweet :)

awww, and he topped the evening off with taking her to the sweetest spot

and she started a skinny dip (hide spoiler)]

I like how the book described Sienna really realizing that the asteroid isn't really about her death anymore..but the realization that there are bigger things and that each person is trying to grab onto another moment of life.

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

Okay so yesterday I was so engrossed in a book that I didn't have time to start.

Today, I have school. Then right after school I go to my aunt's. Then right after that I go to work and come back around 8:30PM. I am going to divide my time between the two books so I will probably have an hour to read this one. Sorry I didn't get to start yesterday.

[Chelsea]

I have been so busy and sick that I forgot all about this (& other BRs :( )

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

No worries, Chelsea and Jacquelyn! It's much less confusing now that I've written out the complete plot in each chapter - lol!

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

Aw, sorry to hear that, Chelsea.

I'm glad it is now less confusing, Trisha! haha!

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

done with day 4
I just plan to push right through and finish this tonight :D

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

Awesome! I am finding this book really difficult to get into...

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

Yeah...it's just...too much that is too broken up.
bleh. horrible intro

and not much happened over the book. :(

almost done

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

oh no. What do you think your rating will be?

I will try and read more but I am not so sure.... :(

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

Oh, boo, only 2 stars! I am not sure I can continue. It is really confusing.. And just boring.

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

YES, no worries. I don't blame you. For me, the whole conclusion wasn't worth the confusion and frustration of it.

yeah, drop it :) there are better ones out there!

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

Okay. Thanks for understanding.

I'm sorry I couldn't continue but I fear going into a reading slump.....
