I wrote a novel for YA. I done it in three drafts. I happen to like it. I enjoy reading it and can't put it down. I feel as though somebody else wrote it and I'm reading it and want to congratulate the author, but of couse I wrote it. And In my humble opinion--or to me--it has one of the best opening of any book I know of. And I know many of the classics opening. Thank for your posting.
