Clever, introverted Joan struggled to come to terms with her mother's death by plunging herself into a dark, colorless, emotionless world. At home, she played lacrosse with her older brother; the best therapy for two kids who had lost the solar power on which their lives had run. Away from home, she haunted the hallways of high school like an invisible ghost. Until one summer day when a golden boy moved in next door, which caused her humorous, awkward, often embarrassing inner conversations to tumble out to complicate and light her path back to living once more, out loud and in color.

While having to cope with stressful realities of high school life, Joan was blind-sided by tragedy, yet manages to be strong, intelligent, independent, and able to find her own path through it all. I found Joan to be a great example to young women, the characters to be distinct, realistic, and funny, and the story to be a welcome one! Glad to have read it - now, where's the next one?;-)>B.

As a cancer survivor I was captivated in reading about how it takes a toll on more than just the patients. Definitely a finish in one sitting kind of book, and great for any and all readers. Enjoy!>Jim H.5.0 out of 5 stars Smart, funnySmart, funny, riveting read, that once picked up cannot be put down. Loved Joan Jett, who stayed true to character throughout. I'd say, "hit me with your best shot," but you already did.2 people found this helpful
