Not a question, just some words of praise for WEIGHTLESS! What a great, interesting read. I don't normally read YA, so fortunately for me this was in the adult section of my library. Great job, and I cannot wait for your next book, which I am hoping is in the works! (OK-there's a question-is it?) Thanks for such a great read. Loved it and am recommending it to all my reader friends!

(I've admitted my uselessness at Goodreads in other places and this passed me by for some reason - usually my brain only comprehends criticism, so that's probably why I didn't see this:) ) YES, is the answer to the question - and the book is firmly adult - there's not a teenager in sight! Very different from WEIGHTLESS but I really enjoyed writing it...I'll reveal more when I'm permitted! Thank you again for your kind words!!!(less)

I'm very intrigued with the blurb of Weightless. And the cover looks good! I'm just curious, will it ever be up on Netgalley for request to review? And is there a definite publication date for the book? Thank you!

Quotes by Sarah Bannan (?)

“We grew up too fast, that’s what they told us. We moved too quickly. Had too much sex, took too many drugs, drank too much. They didn’t have a clue, we said, but we looked around, and wondered if what they said was true. We knew everything about everyone, and it was hard to outrun our childhoods, hard to do enough stuff to make people forget about the time you peed your pants in second grade, the time you cried when your mother forgot to pack your lunch, the time you puked at the end of PE. We did what we could. We tried to make people forget.”
― Sarah Bannan, Weightless

“We were young and hopeful and beautiful and fearless, for just a few seconds, and it made us smile, until we heard the murmuring behind us, and we moved to the side of the gym and took our phones and our mirrors and our lip glosses out of our purses, and we checked to make sure everything was in place.”
― Sarah Bannan, Weightless
