The Vintage Wren: Week 1
(2016)(The first book in the Vintage Wren series)
A Novella by Chautona Havig
The Vintage Wren is a serial novel released in several chapter episodes.
Cassie Wren. Legal assistant. Convenience queen. Thrifter extraordinaire. If there was a "green police" she'd be a fugitive from eco-friendly justice.
But when a friend's teasing feels like a challenge, Cassie accepts it. The result? One year. Twelve months. Fifty-two weeks. Three hundred sixty-five days--of green.
It seemed simple enough. Cut back on paper plates, plastic forks, and straws. Easy peasy. But when her competitive side wars against her desire for convenience, Cassie finds it's not so easy to be "eco-friendly" and "Cassie-friendly."
Week 1 Shopping for Cassie's annual New Year's Eve party sparks an innocent comment that Cassie can't forget. So, during their New Year's Day goal planning session, Cassie's friends tease her about her lack of eco-consciousness, and Cassie determines to change one new thing in favor of the planet every week. For a year. Even if it kills her.
She's confident it will.
Cassie's first week--paper. She's determined to cut out all extraneous paper usage--all of it. But when almost everything comes wrapped in paper, it isn't as easy as she thought it would be. Her only consolation? Some water bottles come with plastic labels, and she doesn't have to cut that out until next week. Ha!
The Vintage Wren. A serial novel released in fifty-two episodes (for obvious reasons).
Genre: Inspirational
