Genre: Fiction

This is the fictionalized story of Samuel Beckett, working with the Resistance and the maquis in France during WWII. It's really the story of survival, not only of the human body but of the creative spirit in the face of the worst sorts of pain, betrayal, fear, and hopelessness.

Title: Tangled Up in You
Author: Christina Lauren
Genre: Romance

Ren is very excited to start Corona Collage, and nervous about leaving the homestead for the first time ever. She is staring as a 22 year old, and has always lived with Gloria and Steve away from the rest of the world. Starting college will be her first time in the real world, and she can’t wait to learn.

When Fitz meets Ren he can’t help but think she is never going to make it on campus. She knows everything about the building on campus, yet has little knowledge of the real world. But there is something that sets him a bit off, and he can’t afford to be blown off track. He needs to graduate at the top of his class to start his life fresh, and Ren is a temporary distraction.

Then an assignment for an immunology class brings up a surprise from Ren’s past, and catches Fitz in a compromising position, the two embark on a reluctant road trip to find out who they really are.

This modern take on Rapunzel will delight fans of fairy tales. While this entry into the Meant To Be series requires a bit more suspension of belief, you will find yourself rooting for Fitz and Ren.

Tangled Up in You is a light read, perfect for those last summer weekends.
