Down with the Shine

Make a wish . . .Lennie always thought her uncles' ?important family legacy? was good old-fashioned bootlegging. Then she takes some of her uncles' moonshine to Michaela Gordon's annual house party, and finds out just how wrong she was.At the party, Lennie has everyone make a wish before drinking the shine?it's tradition. She toasts to wishes for bat wings, for balls of steel, for the party to go on forever. Lennie even makes a wish of her own: to bring back her best friend, Dylan, who was murdered six months ago.The next morning gives Lennie a whole new understanding of the phrase be careful what you wish for?or in her case, be careful what wishes you grant. Because all those wishes Lennie raised a jar of shine to last night? They came true. Most of them came out bad. And once granted, a wish can't be unmade. . . .May all your wishes come true, or at least just this one.Praise for Kate Karyus Quinn?A distinctive, supernatural read.??Kirkus Reviews on (Don't You) Forget About Me?Quinn is a gifted writer.
