[the book is THE FROZEN MOMENT. the publication date is DECEMBER 17th. here's a little TASTE of one of the stories...]
CAVERN OF SPACE by Margaret Malone
The three of us spent most of our time together at Mark’s
mom’s place. We all still lived at home with our mothers, but because Mark was
older, it wasn’t weird to his mom that we were drinking forty ounce bottles of
malt liquor and quarts of tequila. It helped that she spent a lot of time
upstairs in her bedroom with the door closed, watching TV, smoking menthol
100s. Every night that fall, we had the first floor all to ourselves.
We were best friends. Always together.
We were all friends together until accidentally we were
more.
