For Cricket Thompson, a summer like this one will change everything. A summer spent on Nantucket with her best friend, Jules Clayton, and the indomitable Clayton family. A summer when she'll make the almost unattainable Jay Logan hers. A summer to surpass all dreams. Some of this turns out to be true. Some of it doesn't. When Jules and her family suffer a devastating tragedy that forces the girls apart, Jules becomes a stranger whom Cricket wonders whether she ever really knew. And instead of lying on the beach working on her caramel-colored tan, Cricket is making beds and cleaning bathrooms to support herself in paradise for the summer. But it's the things Cricket hadn't counted on--most of all, falling hard for someone who should be completely off-limits--that turn her dreams into an exhilarating, bittersweet reality. A beautiful future is within her grasp, and Cricket must find the grace to embrace it. If she does, her life could be the perfect shade of Nantucket blue. Plus a sneak peek from Nantucket Red, on-sale May 2014!

Don't you kind of loathe how we've joined the decadent phase of Goodreads where perhaps fifty percent (or more) of the evaluations compiled by non-teenagers and non-romancers are now nude and unabashed within their variously successful attempts at being arc, wry, meta, parodic, confessional, and/or snarky? Do not you kind of maple (secretly, in the marrow of your gut's merry druthers) for the nice ol'days of Goodreads (known then as GodFearingGoodlyReading.com) when all reviews were consistently plainspoke Do not you kind of loathe how we've entered the decadent stage of Goodreads wherein perhaps fifty per cent (or more) of the reviews published by non-teenagers and non-romancers are now actually bare and unabashed inside their variously powerful attempts at being arch, wry, meta, parodic, confessional, and/or snarky? Do not you sort of wood (secretly, in the marrow of one's gut's happy druthers) for the great ol'times of Goodreads (known then as GodFearingGoodlyReading.com) when all evaluations were uniformly plainspoken, merely functional, unpretentious, and -- especially else -- dull, dull, boring? Do not you kind of loathe when people state'do not you believe in this manner or sense this way'in an endeavor to goad you both psychologically and grammatically into agreeing with them? In the words of ABBA: I do, I actually do, I do(, I really do, I do). Well, since the interwebs is just a earth where yesteryear stands shoulder-to-shoulder with the present (and with fetish porn), we could review yesteryear in their inviolable presentness any moment we wish. Or at the least until this website finally tanks. Consider (won't you?) Matt Nieberle's report on Macbeth in its entirety. I've bound it with huge rope and dragged it here for your perusal. (Please realize that several a sic are recommended in these reviews.) their really difficult and foolish! why cant we be studying like Romeo and Juliet?!?! at least that book is excellent! There you've it. Refreshingly, not really a review written in one of the witch's sounds or alluding to Hillary and Statement Clinton or discussing the reviewer's first period. Just a primal shout unleashed to the black wilderness of the cosmos.Yes, Mr. Nieberle is (probably) an adolescent, but I admire his ability to strongarm the temptation to be clever or ironic. (Don't you?) He speaks the native language of the idk generation having an economy and a quality that renders his convictions much more emphatic. Here's MICHAEL's review of exactly the same play. You might'know'MICHAEL; he is the'Problems Architect'at Goodreads. (A problematic title itself in so it implies he designs problems... which can be the case, for many I know.) This book shouldn't be required reading... reading plays that you never want to read is awful. Reading a play kinda sucks to start with, if it had been meant to be read, then it would be a novel, not a play. Along with that the teach had us students see the play aloud (on person for every single character for a few pages). None people had see the play before. None folks wanted to read it (I made the mistake of taking the'easy'english class for 6 years). The teacher picked students that appeared as if they weren't paying attention. All this compounded to produce me more or less hate reading classics for something like 10 years (granted macbeth alone wasn't the problem). I also hate iambic pentameter. Pure activism there. STOP the mandatory reading of plays. It's wrong, morally and academically. And it also can really fuck up your GPA. There's no wasteful extravagance in this editorial... no fanfare, no fireworks, no linked photos of half-naked, oiled-up, big-bosomed starlets, no invented dialogues between mcdougal and the review-writer. It's simple and memorable. Being required to learn plays is wrong, and if you require anyone, under duress, to learn a play you then have sinned and will hell, in the event that you believe in hell. If not, you're going to the DMV. I am also fed up with whatever you smug spelling snobs. You damnable fascists along with your new-fangled dictionaries and your fancy-schmancy spell check. Sometimes the passionate immediacy of a message overcomes its spelling limitations. Also, in this age once we are taught to respect each other's differences, this indicates offensively egocentric and mean-spirited to anticipate others tokowtow to the small linguistic rules. Artistic term will probably free on its own irrespective of how you are probably trying in order to shackle it. Which is the cue, Aubrey. Throughout my very own view, this play Macbeth was the actual worste peice actually published by Shakespeare, and this also is saying quite a lot thinking about i additionally understand his or her Romeo as well as Juliet. Ontop regarding it is really by now astounding storyline, impractical personas and absolutly discusting range of ethics, Shakespeare candidly shows Lady Macbeth because the correct vilian within the play. Thinking about she is mearly the particular express in your back rounded in addition to Macbeth herself is definitely truely spending a repulsive criminal activity, which includes kill plus sham, I do not realise why it's so straightforward to imagine that will Macbeth would likely be prepared to try and do excellent rather then bad only if her girlfriend were being additional possitive. I really believe that your participate in can be uterally unrealistic. Yet the next is certainly this ne and also extremely with timeless e book reviewing. Whilst succinct plus without drawing attention trend to coyness as well as cuteness, Jo's review alludes into a aggression thus serious that must be inexpressible. 1 imagines a handful of Signet Basic Models hacked to chunks having pruning shears inside Jo's vicinity. I hate the following play. Because of this that I can not sometimes provide you with virtually any analogies and also similes regarding simply how much I actually hate it. An incrementally snarkier variety will often have stated a little something like...'I don't really like this particular perform as being a simile I can't come up with.' Never Jo. She talks any natural, undecorated fact unsuitable with regard to figurative language. Plus there is nothing wrong together with that. As soon as with a terrific when, once you get neck-deep inside dandified pomo hijinks, it truly is an excellent wallow from the pig put in writing that you are itchin'for. Thanks, Jo. I like you and your futile learning at similes in which are not able to tactic this bilious hate within your heart. You're my very own, along with My business is yours. Figuratively discussing, involving course. And today the following is my personal examine: Macbeth simply by William Shakespeare is best fictional operate inside the British vocabulary, along with anyone who disagrees is usually an asshole along with a dumbhead.
