This is a very short listen; it was just over two hours, and I listened to the whole thing in one day (partly on a run and partly waiting for/riding an Amtrak train). Maya is a seventh grader who suddenly finds herself shut ouf of the clique she'd formerly belonged to. Its queen bee Candace had su...

This time was a charm; I picked up this book from the library so that I had something to read while at the Laundromat. Izzy is a 14 year old who has been given the diagnosis of cancer (Hodgkin's lymphoma). This ...
