Setting: Contemporary Yachnats and Eugene, Oregon
First line/s: "A dusty maroon pickup approaches. My pulse surges. My timing is dead on. I duck under the foliage and heft up my dad's ancient binoculars zooming in on two large hands gripping ten and two."
My comments: Although quite implausible, this is suspenseful mystery was great fun to read, especially as long as you took everything with a grain of salt and a little bit of eye-rolling…..great-looking-super-athlete-with-no-girlfriend-ha!-Tosh and gorgeous-never-been-kissed-even-though-she’s-eighteen-Lucy do make a great pair..... And my less-than-five rating does NOT mean I couldn't put it down....because I couldn't!
Goodreads synopsis: Every year, an anonymous gift is left on eighteen-year-old Lucy’s porch. It’s the only gift she receives all year, and it’s exactly what she needs. This year’s gift exposes hidden clues, untangling the undisclosed fates of her parents. Along the way, she finds Toph, a college athlete who’s easy on the eyes and deems to be more useful than suspected. With the help of her best friend Art, a chemistry genius who resides at the nursing home where she’s employed, she delves into an impossible mission for truth, love, and freedom.
