A good story about accepting who you are and being proud of where you come from and what makes each person "shine." I can see a lot of my kids enjoying this story! Grades 4+ Read June, 2014

WHY HAVE I NOT HEARD OF THIS BOOK BEFORE NOW?! If it weren't for Jennifer L. Armentrout and Miranda Kenneally, I probably would have never read it but I'm so glad I did!

I thought this was an enjoyable contemporary fiction book and I was sucked into the story quickly, but my major dislike for Chelsea, the main character, prevented me from loving this book. The story alternates between the perspectives of Chelsea, a star basketball player with an injury that kills he...

I haven't come across too many contemporary YAs where the heroine is a sports player, so I was waiting eagerly for the library to get their copy. I'm so glad I read it, it was good.Chelsea Keyes was the star basketball player in her hometown. She had a bright future with plans to attend college on a...
