YA
Told from alternating viewpoints, this supernatural and sentimental tale of a heart transplanted from sixteen-year-old competitive skater Eagan into shy fourteen-year-old Amelia overflows with earnest optimism. Stuck in a "nowhere land," Eagan wrestles with her early death and her regrets, while Amelia finds herself infused with new characteristics and inexplicable knowledge about her donor.
