6 Starred Reviews and a New York Public Library Best Book of 2017! New York Times bestselling author Jodi Lynn Anderson delivers an epic tale through three unforgettable perspectives, exploring how love, determination, and hope can alter one's fate. In 2065, Adri is selected to live on Mars but discovers a journal from a girl who lived in her house over a century ago, drawing her into a mystery. In 1934, during the Dust Bowl, Catherine faces her family's dire situation and must find the courage to sacrifice everything for the one she loves most. Meanwhile, in 1919, Lenore grapples with her grief for her brother, a fallen soldier, as she plans to sail from England to America. Their stories, spanning generations and distances, intertwine in both heartbreaking and hopeful ways. Anderson's haunting, lyrical prose brings human connections to life, illuminating the small yet significant moments that shape fate. Critics praise the novel for its emotional depth, compelling characters, and the exploration of resilience and hope. Each character's independence shines, creating a thread that ties them together, while Anderson's evocative writing ensures these remarkable women leave a lasting impact on readers. This thought-provoking narrative is a must-have for all YA collections.
