This summer The Cold Spring Harbor Whaling Museum taught our Young Adults how to make art out of....CHOCOLATE! in the program "Dark and Delicious. <br />

They know where it's safe to go, and who to avoid. Like the crazy guy on the corner.</div><br />
But things start to unravel. Sal gets punched by a kid on the street for what seems like no reason and he shuts Miranda out of his life. The apartment key that Miranda's mom keeps hidden for emergencies is stolen. And then a mysterious note arrives, scrawled on a tiny slip of paper.<br />
<br />
<em>I am coming to save your friend's life, and my own.</em><br />
<em>I ask two favors. First, you must write me a letter.</em><br />
<br />
The notes keep coming, and Miranda slowly realizes that whoever is leaving them knows thigns no one should know. Each message brings her closer to believing that one she can preent a tragic death. Until the final note makes her think she's too late.YA Librarianhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06820372701580856260noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9120613273721562007.post-58761618488127358222011-06-23T14:24:00.000-07:002011-06-23T14:24:20.719-07:00Prizes for Reading!<u><span style="font-size: large;">Young Adult Go Global Summer Reading Club</span></u><br />
