Description
Sana Kiyohara has too many secrets. Some are small, like how it bothers her when her friends don't invite her to parties. Others are big, like the fact that her father may be having an affair. And then there's the one she can barely even admit to herself - about how she might have a crush on her best friend. When Sana moves to California with her family, she begins to wonder if it's finally time for some honesty. She meets Jamie Ramirez, who is beautiful and smart and unlike anyone Sana has ever known. But there are complications: Sana's new friends don't trust Jamie's crowd, Jamie's friends clearly don't want her around anyway, and a sweet guy named Caleb seems to have more-than-friendly feelings for her. Telling the truth can be easy, but what comes after it is complicated. This poignant coming-of-age story explores themes of identity, friendship, and first love in a way that will resonate with anyone who has ever struggled to find their place in the world.
