Genre: Young Adult
Criss Cross: She wished something would happen. Something good. To her. Checking her wish for loopholes, she found one. Hoping it wasn’t too late, she thought the word soon. Meanwhile, in another part of town, he felt as if the world was opening. Life was rearranging itself; bulging in places, fraying in spots. He felt himself changing, too, but into what?So much can happen in a summer.
All Alone in the Universe: "Before last summer Maureen and I were best friends….At least I think we were. I don’t know what happened exactly. As some people who get hit by trucks sometimes say, ‘I didn’t see anything coming.’" When her best friend since the third grade starts acting as though Debbie doesn’t exist, Debbie finds out the hard way that life can be a lonesome place. But in the end the heroine of this wryly funny coming-of-age story–a girl who lives in a house covered with stuff that is supposed to look like bricks but is just a fake brick pattern–discovers that even the hourly tragedies of junior high school can have silver linings, just as a house covered with Insul-Brick can protect a real home. This first novel shines–fun, engrossing, bittersweet, and wonderfully unpredictable.
As Easy as Falling Off the Face of the Earth: The train was moving. Ry could hardly tell at first, but now he knew. It was gaining speed, and he wasn’t fast enough to catch it. He had only gotten off for a minute, just to make a phone call – and now it was gone. He was in the middle of nowhere, alone.
Maybe it was the middle of nowhere, but to Ry, it felt like the beginning of something. Something that would take him in cars, planes, boats … over an ocean and back. Something like an adventure.
