Friday Memes: The Inconceivable Life of Quinn by Marianna Baer

Happy Friday everybody!!
Book Beginnings on Friday is now hosted by Rose City Reader. The Friday 56 is hosted at Freda's Voice. Check out the links above for the rules and for the posts of the participants each week. Don’t dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST.

Beginning:
There was an ocean in her bedroom.
Friday 56:
"After all the crap I deal with out there, I have to come home to this mess?" her father said.

"You're welcome to do any sort of cleaning you want," Katherine said. "It's not like I've spent the morning sitting around doing nothing."
This week I am reading The Inconceivable Life of Quinn by Marianna Baer. Here is the description from Amazon:
Quinn Cutler is sixteen and the daughter of a high-profile Brooklyn politician. She’s also pregnant, a crisis made infinitely more shocking by the fact that she has no memory of ever having sex. Before Quinn can solve this deeply troubling mystery, her story becomes public. Rumors spread, jeopardizing her reputation, her relationship with a boyfriend she adores, and her father’s campaign for Congress. Religious fanatics gather at the Cutlers’ home, believing Quinn is a virgin, pregnant with the next messiah. Quinn’s desperate search for answers uncovers lies and family secrets—strange, possibly supernatural ones. Might she, in fact, be a virgin?

  7. Woah, that's a lot of stuff to absorb in that synopsis. I'm baffled by the direction of the plot. I quite fancy that cover though. Happy Friday!

    An ocean in your bedroom? Wonder what that would look like?

    Have a great weekend.
