Next pick: "Down the Rabbit Hole"

This is a short Mexican novel lauded for the realism of its 7-year-old narrator. Thought it would be an interesting read after our discussion about the Young Adult perspective.

'There's always the phone'

I thought some of the Liars' rebellion stemmed from deep-down awareness that they would let go of each other once they were separated, best of intentions nonwithstanding. Cady mentioned that in a few ways: That they'd stay connected, tagging photos in September, and then that would die out, or a few times it was "there's always the phone." The adults really only threatened their immediate proximity. They would let themselves down after that.
