وصف الناشر
Megan survived the plane crash—but can she survive the aftermath? An intense, emotional novel from the author of The Unwritten Rule and Between Here and Forever.
Megan is a miracle. At least, that’s what everyone says. Having survived a plane crash that killed everyone else on board, Megan knows she should be grateful just to be alive. But the truth is, she doesn’t feel like a miracle.
In fact, she doesn’t feel anything at all.
Then memories from the crash start coming back. Scared and alone, Megan doesn’t know whom to turn to. Her entire community seems unable—or maybe unwilling—to see her as anything but Miracle Megan. Everyone except for Joe, the beautiful boy next door with a tragic past and secrets of his own.
All Megan wants is for her life to get back to normal, but the harder she tries to live up to everyone’s expectations, the worse she feels. And this time, she may be falling too fast to be saved...
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
When Meggie walks away from a plane crash the sole survivor of the small craft's explosive landing in the forest she is labeled a miracle by her family, friends, and small town. But Meggie, a high school senior, doesn't feel like a miracle; in fact, she doesn't feel much of anything. She goes through the motions of her life and pulls back from everyone, unable to remember the details of the crash yet haunted by them sometimes literally, as when she "sees" fellow passengers at school and home. Scott (Living Dead Girl) offers a remarkable portrait of the isolation and struggle of post-traumatic stress disorder, and Meggie's narration consistently reflects the hollow emptiness she feels as she burrows deeper into herself. Margaret, an older woman who goes to Meggie's church and served in Vietnam, is the first to see that all is not right with Meggie, and Meggie almost feels like herself when she's with her gorgeous neighbor Joe. Meggie's final catharsis is powerful if graphic. A painful story of being changed, but not destroyed by a trauma. Ages 14 up.
