Trying to catch up on library dues – started reading The Radioactive Boy Scout. True story of a boy that tried to build a breeder reactor in his back yard in an effort to get his atomic energy merit badge. Yeah, he had issues.
It’s actually somewhat sad so far. He’s obviously smart, but his parents are really wrapped up in their own lives (divorced) and they pay little attention to him except for when he needs to go to the emergency room due to various failed chemistry experiments. And even then, it seems like a PIA since it interrupts their day.

Hangovers, stranger and stranger traveling companions, an unwelcoming city and odd facts coming to light…

Between Yesterday and Today, I’ve knocked out seven chapters. Our travelers have stayed at a hotel that isn’t terribly nice where they’ve met an odd man who travels with his mother. They don’t like one another and yet they hitch a ride with them…this seems to be a theme of traveling and not liking things.
Need I mention what happens on a train between Kit and not her husband? On a train? That goes through a tunnel?
