Re: does anyone remember (YA book)?
Now you've got me thinking of all of my old favorite YA books (other than the Christopher Pike books, because we've all discussed those ad nauseum).
Everything But Tuesdays and Thursdays (so risque for a pre-teen to read!)
Hangin' Out With Cici
Stranger With My Face (I'm still fascinated with the theory of astral projection)
The Face on the Milk Carton
Ask Me If I Care (girl falls for her druggie neighbor, this was my autobiography at 14, lol)
Find a Stranger, Say Goodbye
The Ghosts of Departure Point
I'm taking a road trip this weekend as a passenger, and I might just take some of these with me to pass the time!
Stranger With My Face! I reread this all summer...'87(?). Lois Duncan was awesome, she always had a real spooky ending not some "it turned out there was just mice in the attic" crap.
I *think* I read Ghosts of Departure Point. Was there something with patched tires and ...intertwined balloons? I want to say Peter S Beagle's A Fine and Private Place was similar, but I read it so long ago I don't really remember.
Ask Me If I Care sounds like something my BFF might have gotten from her grandma. Grandma was ?ber Christian and would get her these books about prostitutes and mental patients saved by Jesus. We ate them up because the first 2/3rds were all about prostitutes, drugs and crazy people.
"The meek shall inherit the earth" isn't about children. It's about deer. We're all going to get messed the fuckup by a bunch of cloned super-deer.- samfish2bcrab
Sometimes I wonder if scientists have never seen a sci-fi movie before. "Oh yes, let's create a super species of deer. NOTHING COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG." I wonder if State Farm offers a Zombie Deer Attack policy. -CaliopeSpidrman
I read this too! It's "The not-just-anybody-family" by Betsy Byars
