Cara works hard at finding foods Aelyx can eat with pleasure or at least comfort and sticks by him as the two attend classes at the local public school. While the family’s home is full of overstuffed, overly bright furnishings the mom has taken pains to echo the simple décor preferred by L’ehirs in the decorating of his bedroom.
Turns out someone else had staked out that dark corner – the very someone who would be coming home with her to spend the next nine months as her exchange student.Īfter that rocky start Aelyx is surprised to find himself tolerating and then appreciating the Sweeneys’s hospitality. She hadn’t intended for it to be a comedy routine and is shocked when she hears muffled laughter coming from behind her. Determined to have the spanx off or die trying Cara finds a dark corner and jerks, tugs, grunts, and swears as they make shockingly slow progress down her hips. President beat her to the facilities and she is unable to enter for security reasons. Finally deciding that breathing and eating trump looking good (a rare choice for a teenage girl) she heads to the rest room to take off the torturous underwear. The dress she has worn to the welcoming event is too small and the spandex she wore to suck her gut in two sizes smaller than that. Along with the other three student ambassadors he makes plans to ensure it will end in the latter.Ĭara doesn’t make the best impression when meeting Aelyx. He does have a choice as to whether or not his participation will lead to success or failure. Since he has been chosen for the mission and civil disobedience is harshly punished in his society he has no choice but to participate. It isn’t until she starts talking it over with her friends, though, that she realizes just how big a deal it will be.Īelyx of L’eihr shares the feelings of Cara’s friends when it comes to the exchange – he wants nothing to do with it. So when her principal calls her into the office to advise her that she has earned the privilege of hosting a L’eihr exchange student and throws a kink in all her well laid plans, it is a big deal. She’s thrown her all into getting where she wants to go and has her future carefully mapped out. Senior Cara Sweeney hasn’t reached Valedictorian status without kicking butt and taking names. While sci-fi novels have been out of style and fantasy and paranormal books have reached ascendancy recent publishing trends have me hoping we are about to see that change.
I have ever since childhood when I discovered authors like Andre Norton and Isaac Asimov.
