This novel is the first of a new YA series. It portrays eight different individuals in, mostly, separate social groups, with little in common, come together at school for a worthy cause.
The tale depicts how this group implausibly became friends. Plus, in this first book of the series, it alludes to how each individual's dreams rarely turns out as he/she wants them to. Often what one truly desires is in conflict with what another desires at the same time.
High School is such a crazy time of life, filled with turmoil, new emotions, and self discovery. As shown in these writings, all youth mature in a different ways, in different stages.
It is cleanly written and parents can comfortably know what their youth is reading is totally good material.
Key Points I derived: Adolescent interaction, Individual beliefs,
Grief, Vanity, Peer Pressure, Functional/Dysfunctional families.
If it were not for the lack of smooth transition between situations I would give this five stars but it was at times distracting. Therefore, this book review gives this novel a strong Four Stars rating and I especially recommend it for Middle School and High School libraries'. ( )
