MG Friendship Novel Tender, Touching
7:41 PM
(Image from Barnes & Noble)
Ever since Katie Burton moved to Boston four months ago, she and her neighbor Ana Petrova have been best friends. At least that's what Ana thinks. Katie still misses her BFF in Utah. She's getting used to Ana's effusive personality, but she's a little frightened of it, too. With her heart condition, Katie's used to playing it safe; Ana's an impulsive risk-taker, whose wild schemes sometimes get them both in trouble.

In a time when both girls desperately need someone to lean on, their secrets are tearing their new friendship apart. Can they learn to trust each other or will the weight of their individual problems pulverize a bond that hasn't even really had a chance to form?

(Readalikes: Hm, no specific titles are coming to mind. You?)
Grade:
If this were a movie, it would be rated:
for subject matter that's most appropriate for readers over the age of 8
To the FTC, with love: I received a finished copy of Paper Chains from the generous folks at HarperCollins. Thank you!
