What Happens Next | Colleen Clayton
5 posts | 6 read | 3 to read
How can you talk about something that you can't remember? Before the ski trip, Cassidy "Sid" Murphy was a cheerleader (on the bottom of the pyramid, but still...) and a straight-A student, with two of the best friends a girl could ask for. When Sid finds herself on a ski lift with hunky local college guy, Dax Windsor, she's thrilled. "Come to a party with me," he tells her, but Dax isn't what he seems. He takes everything from Sid-including a lock of her perfect red curls-and she can't remember any of it. After the ski trip, Sid is an insomniac and an obsessive late-night runner, unable to relate to her old friends. Caught in a downward spiral, Sid drops her college prep classes and takes up residence in the A/V room with only Corey "The Living Stoner" Livingston for company. But as she gets to know Corey--slacker, baker, total dreamboat--Sid finds someone who truly makes her happy. Now, if only she could shake the nightmares, everything would be perfect... Witty and poignant, Colleen Clayton's debut is a stunning story of moving on after the unthinkable happens.

*nothing to do with tagged book*

I'm not gonna panic as this may be a good thing. Not sure about being on the FB page much as I'm not crazy social there but I do love this community so I'll cheer on @TimSpalding and staff at #librarythings and get a start on my LibraryThing account as I just signed up last week!

I've done the#litsychallenge2017 and the #litsyAtoZ... What next? Are there some other challenges about to choose from? Help me, Litsy!

I mostly read "genre" books, but will branch out to the occasional Literary or non fiction book or poetry, within reason. In "genre" though, my reading is pretty broad - SF, fantasy, YA/MG, romance, crime, psychological thriller. Bias toward women writers, #ownvoices books with disabled MC, Aus Aboriginal, etc.

DreesReads #192019 with @Marchpane--should keep you busy for awhile! 7y
josie281 I'm reading a book from every year of my life. 7y
Lauredhel @AudreyMorris Mm, interesting. I might struggle to find ebooks for a fair bit of that, though? (My heavily preferred format, for accessibility reasons). It might be that @josie281 's idea is more doable... Thanks! 7y

Lauredhel @josie281 and that seems a good sort of project to embark on in the year I turn fifty! 7y
DreesReads @Lauredhel I don't buy books, and my library's selection if ebooks consists mostly of post-2015 YA and romance. Finding something from 1970 is no harder than 1940! 7y
Lauredhel @AudreyMorris poking around, it seems just reading my backlog tbr of Heyer, LeGuin, Jackson, DuMaurier, and my planned McCaffrey re-read would cover quite a few of these years! 7y
Soubhiville I've been seeing tons of people building their own bingo cards for a TBR challenge. If you have a looming TBR, as most of us do, a challenge to read what you already own seems like a pretty good idea! 7y
Lauredhel @Soubhiville the one-from-each-year challenge should serve as a TBR challenge quite nicely! 7y
Lauredhel @AudreyMorris my library seems to have most if not all of the Heyers, so that's a good start! 7y

And maybe if I do this long enough, and do this often enough, the numbness will stay and I will no longer be Sid Murphy, helpless ragdoll, sleeping toy. I will be Sid Murphy, human glacier, suit of armor forged from ice.
