Quote of the day: "You think there's nothing here because we're not putting up a fight. But there are words in our heads that no one else knows. And my grandfather died on his terms, not yours. We have things of value but you can never find them because you don't know how to look." Cassia - Matched

Quote of the day: "He pivoted, gaze following me as I crossed to the shower and turned on the cold water, so it would drown out our conversation without steaming up the room.
"Great," he muttered. "Now they're going to think we're showering together. Maybe we can just tell them were washing off the crawl space dirt and trying to conserve water." Derek and Chloe - The Summoning

Quote of the day: "Is there another? Dearly departed, scarcely lamented, deeply demented Dr. Samuel Lyle," the voice sang, sailing past me on a current of wait air. "Creator of the prettiest, sweetest abomination I have ever seen."
"Wh-what?"
"A bit of this, a bit of that," she sang. "A twist here, a tweak there. And look what we have. One perfect ball of energy, waiting to explode." The voice came closer, breeze ruffling my hair. "Are there more of you, child? There must be. Little magic makers and monsters, bursting with energy. Have your creators realized their mistake yet?"

All the best to all of you who are participating in the read-a-thon. And wish me luck :)
I hated Panic, haha, but it was mainly because I expected something else from the story. I'm curious about Four. Happy reading and good luck!
