You Slay Me by Katie MacAlister published 9/7/04
I think my favorite Foo Fighters song is "Best of You".
For #8 are you looking for an investigation of both rape and murder or is one or the other okay? And for #9 can the 9 be September or 9, 19, or 29 or just in the year? Oh, and for #2 does the friend have to die during the story or can the death take place before the story but be mentioned in the book? Thanks! :)
Mod
Welcome Katharine!
For #8, either is ok.
For #9, any of those are good!
For #2, if the friend died before the story, it needs to affect the story in some way.
OK? :)
