Panic / Sharon M. Draper / 262 pages / 9 Ladies Dancing December Challenge

"Do what you know is right for you."  If Diamond had heeded this excellent advice, or if she had remembered not to talk to strangers...Layla is in an abusive relationship with Donovan and eagerly awaiting her father's return from prison.  Justin is the only male in the dance company and is an excellent dancer with intense feeling for Layla.  Donovan hates to see Justin dance with his Layla and strikes out in a reprehensible, illegal way. This awesome book by the irrepressible Sharon Draper, focuses on each character individually and alternately, with each chapter featuring a quote from Peter Pan.
