With the L'Engle books, I had rarely ventured from the Wrinkle in Time series, but when I finally read the inside cover and found that this book's main character was the daughter of the characters in the other books, I read it very quickly. L'Engle's coming-of-age books are absolutely amazing, and this one is no exception. I found myself never wanting to put it down and was highly disappointed when it came to an end. This is a great read for just about anyone, but female readers will most likely be able to relate more. ( )

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0440936853, Paperback)

When sixteen-year-old Polly O'Keefe journeys to Athens, she feels confused and betrayed.



The past eight months at home were different from any other time in her life. She met the brilliant, wealthy Maximiliana Horne, who gave her encouragement and made her feel self-confident. Polly idolized Max, until she learned a starting truth that left her wounded and angry.



Now on a trip to Greece arranged by Max, Polly finds romance, danger, and unique friendships. But can she find a way to forgive Max and remember her as more than a painful memory?
