(4) YA A shattered friendship between high schoolers Agnes, Moira, and Boone is pieced together as they share their struggles: Moira with body image and fat-shaming; Boone with his family's low income and his mother's spiraling depression; and Agnes, who suffers from progeria, with a short lifespan. The friendship-enmity-friendship path is predictable, but the rotating first-person narratives provide urgency and reflection as Agnes's death unsurprisingly approaches.
