Jonathan Tropper, "Everything Changes"
I chose this book purely on the strength of its first line - it was part of a 'wrap it up' bookbox, so the first line was all I had to go on:
"The night before everything changes, an earthquake jolts me out of my sleep, and I instinctively reach over for Tamara, but it isn't Tamara, of course, it's Hope."
I was rather hoping that the narrator would turn out to be a woman, but it didn't. Oh well. It was a harmless enough read, though nothing special. Zack has possible cancer and an early mid-life crisis (the two facts not, obviously, unconnected). Also a huge chip on his shoulder in re his pater. He meets people, learns stuff, changes, all that jazz.
On Bookcrossing.
