How did you like Panic? It's been on my kindle forever. Everytime I start reading it I, for whatever reason, start something different.

[Lynn]

I really enjoyed Panic. I don't think it helps that a lot of people go into it expecting Dystopia (especially as it's even tagged on GR as that) when it isn't!
