Sign me right up!<\/small><\/p>\n<p><small>So it is good to know that Carswell has pretty much always been opportunistic. He\u2019s always been shrewd and calculative, and smart. Also a ladies\u2019 man. I thoroughly enjoyed reading about him as a thirteen-year-old, with a heart that he buries deep under his dreams and desire to be free.<\/small><\/p>\n<p><small>A little surprised that he is apparently from a rich family, but determined to break free. His father seems super strict and not happy about anything he\u2019s done, and his mother is distant at best. But Carswell is still smart and determined to make his life on his own terms.<\/small><\/p>\n<p><small>I hope that someway this ties back into <i>Winter<\/i>. Some mention of his parents or something.<\/small><\/p>\n<p><small>All in all, glad I managed to get a copy after signing up for Marissa Meyer\u2019s newsletter on her website.<\/small><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Carswell&#8217;s Guide To Being Lucky by Marissa Meyer Thirteen-year-old Carswell Thorne has big plans involving a Rampion spaceship and a no-return trip out of Los Angeles.
