A brilliant, touching coming-of-age story, and a Newbery Honor Book.
Martha Boyle and Olive Barstow could have been friends, but they weren't. Weeks after a tragic accident, all that is left are eerie connections between the two girls, former classmates who both kept the same secret without knowing it.
Now, even while on vacation at the ocean, Martha can't stop thinking about Olive. Things only get more complicated when Martha begins to like Jimmy Manning, a neighbor boy she used to despise. What is going on? Can life for Martha be the same ever again?

Great
It was a good read
One of my favorite books
One of my favorite books I have ever read in my life. I have read it about 15 times and I have loved every minute
Beautiful
I first read this book when I was in middle school. I loved it so much that I have read it again and again continuing into high school. It's the kind of descriptive book that you want to jump into. Kevin Henkes paints a beautiful picture of the setting with his words. Would recommend to any middle school girl, or almost anyone. I will tell you one thing, by the time your done reading you will want to fill a baby jar with ocean water. Simply a beautiful story.
