Evolved Publishing presents the first book in the "Darla Decker Diaries" series by Jessica McHugh, with "Darla Decker Hates to Wait." This edgy young adult novel follows a girl's tentative journey toward adulthood. ~~~ Patience is not Darla Decker's strong suit. Surviving sixth grade is tough enough with an annoying older brother, a best friend acting distant, and schoolwork.

Yet the more Darla waits for her adulthood to begin, the more she learns that summoning patience won't be the hardest part of being eleven. ~ A frank and funny look at the path to adulthood, "Darla Decker Hates to Wait" begins a journey of love, loss, and the nitty-gritty of growing up through Darla Decker's eyes. ~ Watch for Book 2 in the "Darla Decker Diaries" series, "Darla Decker Takes the Cake, " coming in late 2014.
