Description:
At fifteen, Clover is finding the going tougher than she expected. Her life is close to being derailed on the rocky terrain of family, friendship, first love, acts of defiance and a planet on the brink of environmental disaster. When life feels like it's fracturing, how do you find a way to feel whole?


Hardship never goes away no matter how old we are. But this is a story for teenagers to relate to, and discover how Clover handles her trials.

Fictional Thoughts writes a favorable book review.
