Recent Arrivals chronicles the books that have made their way onto the Today, I Read… bookshelf. Here’s the latest arrival: wtf by Peter Lerangis

First line: The eyes were beautiful.

Initial thoughts: This was a happy surprise mailbox find. And after reading the first chapter, I’m certain of two things: 1) it will be a quick read; and 2) it is fast paced.

I’m not entirely sure of the context or plot or what I’m in for, and the back cover made me raise an eyebrow. Frankly, I’m a little worried and a little excited.

Book description:

ONE PLAN, TWO PARTIES, SIX PLAYERS:

Jimmy: the driver
Cam: the connect
Byron: the know-it-all
Waits: the supplier
Reina: the conscience
MC: the crasher

On one Friday night these six will test their limits to the extreme. Some are driven by lust, others by greed. One just wants to have fun, and another desires to be free. If everything goes as planned, they all get what they want. But within twenty-four hours, bones will break, bodies will touch, hearts will race, guns will be drawn, and everything will go oh so very wrong.
