Once, when I picked up a book from the local library, the librarian asked to tell her what I thought about the book when I would bring it back. Well, why not write a few lines about all the books I read so everybody could see what I thought about it? I'm often also happy to have friends recommend a certain book or tell me this and that is not really worth reading. I won't comment about the tons of books I have read so far, but about books I read from now on.

At the age of 18 you might do some stupid things, especially when pushed by your friends to take part in a dare. Luckily, often these things go well, but there is no guarantee.
Six young friends hang out together most of the summer and have a good time. But one night, something goes wrong. All their lives are going to change. Unless, one of them takes the blame, so the others can continue their lives unblemished. The price for that is one favour from each of them in the future. And that favour can be anything.
The story in this book plays at two times, when the six friends are around 18, and when they are adults and it is time to call in the favours. Both parts are well written, but different. If you hope for a happy ending, however, you'll be somewhat disappointed, as it is not so happy for some of the characters.
