The Rules for Disappearing by Ashley Elston - PUBLIC


Elston, Ashley The Rules for Disappearing, 320 p. Disney, MAY 2013.  $17.  Language: R (100 + swears, 0 ‘f’); Mature Content: G; Violence: PG (blood).  

“Megan” and “Mary” are sick and tired of being moved around by the Witness Protection program.  Their family is falling apart and midnight moves are destroying everyone.  “Meg” is determined, this time, to find out what her father did to force their family through this trauma.  And she is also determined to connect this no one, involve herself in nothing.  But maybe it is not her father’s fault the family is on the run.  And maybe an irresistibly cute boy will tug on her heart strings so hard that every rule will be broken and every dirty detail will come to light.  

This could have been an excellent update to Zach’s Lie, but the assault of swears distracted me from the story.  Too bad.
