Synopsis
High school junior Annabel Greene is beautiful and has even modeled, but her life is a mess: an older sister is anorexic, Annabel is an outcast at school, and she’s desperately trying to forget something horrific that happened in the spring. But when she becomes friends with fellow outsider Owen, Annabel learns more than she thought possible about music, and begins to appreciate what goes on underneath people’s brittle surfaces. Sarah Dessen, a popular young adult novelist, has also written THIS LULLABY and SOMEONE LIKE YOU., Isolated from friends who believe the worst because she has not been truthful with them, sixteen-year-old Annabel finds an ally in classmate Owen, whose honesty and passion for music help her to face and share what really happened at the end-of-the-year party that changed her life.

Industry Reviews
"Dessen packs a lot into this novel, perhaps too much; but Annabel and Owen's finely limned connection alone gives this novel staying power."
