 "Now Is Not the Time to Panic\," by Kevin Wilson.\n.\nhttps://wilmette.lib

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>An exuberant\, bighearted novel about two 
 teenage misfits who spectacularly collide one fateful summer\, and the art
  they make that changes their lives forever</p>\n<p>Sixteen-year-old Frank
 ie Budge&mdash\;aspiring writer\, indifferent student\, offbeat loner&mdas
 h\;is determined to make it through yet another summer in Coalfield\, Tenn
 essee\, when she meets Zeke\, a talented artist who has just moved into hi
 s grandmother&rsquo\;s house and who is as awkward as Frankie is. Romantic
  and creative sparks begin to fly\, and when the two jointly make an unsig
 ned poster\, shot through with an enigmatic phrase\, it becomes unforgetta
 ble to anyone who sees it.&nbsp\;The edge is a shantytown filled with gold
  seekers. We are fugitives\, and the law is skinny with hunger for us.</p>
 \n<p>The posters begin appearing everywhere\, and people wonder who is beh
 ind them and start to panic. Satanists\, kidnappers&mdash\;the rumors won&
 rsquo\;t stop\, and soon the mystery has dangerous repercussions that spre
 ad far beyond the town.</p>\n<p>Twenty years later\, Frances Eleanor Budge
  gets a call that threatens to upend her carefully built life: a journalis
 t named Mazzy Brower is writing a story about the Coalfield Panic of 1996.
  Might Frances know something about that?</p>\n<p>A bold coming-of-age sto
 ry\, written with Kevin Wilson&rsquo\;s trademark wit and blazing prose\,&
 nbsp\;<em>Now Is Not the Time to Panic</em>&nbsp\;is a nuanced exploration
  of young love\, identity\, and the power of art. It&rsquo\;s also about t
 he secrets that haunt us&mdash\;and\, ultimately\, what the truth will set
  free. (From the publisher)</p>\n<p>Find a copy of the&nbsp\;book&nbsp\;<a
