Dancing. It's as if the whole world is dancing. All of those closest to me, and all of those that I've ever known or seen are dancing. Sweat is trickling down the foreheads of those around me. It stings our eyes and pools at our feet, but we keep dancing. The droning of an aimlessly pleasant ballad paints the air. Its sweetness keeps our bodies moving, but is it truly as sweet as it seems?

Ari Callahan has no idea how to talk to boys -- or how to talk to anyone for that matter. Enter Zac, the cute new guy in town who won't stop texting her. But is his interest real, or does he have a hidden agenda? ***** Found as a young child washed up on the beach, 17-year-old Ari Callahan has never uttered a word out loud to anyone -- not even her adoptive family. Psychologists have diagnosed her with a condition called selective mutism, but Ari can't help identifying with her namesake character, Ariel, the little mermaid in the fairytale whose voice was stolen by a sea witch. Mermaid-obsession aside, Ari's silence makes socializing tough. She's never had a boyfriend or been asked out on a date. Not until Zac, the confident new arrival in town, asks for her number. But Zac has his own reasons for texting with Ari. He's part of a movement to sabotage the artificial music app called SirenSong, threatening to render human singing obsolete. Zac's collaborators have scoured the globe in search of a singing voice perfect enough to break the SirenSong spell, and their search has led them straight to Ari's beachside town. Will her relationship with Zac help Ari find her voice and unlock the secrets of her origins? Or will he use her and leave her high and dry? Title: Ari and Zac (formerly The Mermaid Hypothesis) Content Warning: This story contains references to selective mutism, suicidal thoughts, and early childhood trauma.

The novel depicts the plight of the French peasantry demoralized by the French aristocracy in the years leading up to the revolution, the corresponding brutality demonstrated by the revolutionaries toward the former aristocrats in the early years of the revolution, and many unflattering social parallels with life in London during the same time period. It follows the lives of several protagonists through these events. The most notable are Charles Darnay and Sydney Carton. Darnay is a former French aristocrat who falls victim to the indiscriminate wrath of the revolution despite his virtuous nature, and Carton is a dissipated English barrister who endeavors to redeem his ill-spent life out of his unrequited love for Darnay's wife.

We can fly away to Neverland and sword fight with Captain Hook because that’s the point, it doesn’t have to make sense, we don’t have to follow the rules as long as we make up a new set that follows the philosophy of never growing up and fixing everything with a bit of pixie dust.” He smiled at me and his eyes melted through my own. “That’s the thing about Disney and one day, I promise I will show you everything you refuse to believe in.” Carly Ann is in a serious pickle. With no money for college and barely enough for rent, she has no idea how she's going to get out of the dump she's living in.

He introduces her to all sorts of strange stuff, like wild parties, girls that have experienced things Carly has only heard of from Nicolas Sparks books and boys. Lots of boys. However, Carly is just as fiery and stubborn as the colour of her hair and the strange Disney boy is going to experience one of his greatest challenges yet, bigger than the fight between Peter Pan and Captian Hook. That's pretty darn big. Noah White is on a mission. He is determined to make Carly enjoy Disney, even if he has to take her on a trip to Neverland in the process. ____________________________ All mentions of Disney Land and Disney World belong to Walt Disney along with all characters.
