Chantel Guertin Stranded on a Desert Island!
The Fault in our Stars by John Green. I can open this book to any page and read a single paragraph and enjoy it.
A manicure set: a good manicure really changes my attitude on life.
SPF. Miserable would being on a desert island be with a sunburn?
Briefly? I’d definitely enjoy solitude for a while before I started talking to a volleyball.
My husband-to-be. Or Gerry Dee. I think he’s awesome.
Probably as long as it took me to write a book. How productive I’d be! But I should probably change the answer to question #3 to “power cord for my laptop”.
Two weeks in New York City should be the time of Pippa’s life: she’s attending the prestigious Tisch Photography Camp, her boyfriend, Dylan McCutter (two months and counting!) is coming with her, and their parents are 500 miles away. Talk about lights, camera, (swoony, unchaperoned) action! But what should be 14 unforgettable days of bliss turns into chaos when her one and only nemesis, Ben Baxter, proves to be surprisingly more complex than she could’ve ever imagined, and her Tisch mentor, a renowned photographer, seems to have a lot more to do with her parents’ past than anyone wants her to know. Is Pippa out of her depth?
