No current Talk conversations about this book. 4/10, this is awful, especially the mature themes like suicide, and the main character "cancelling people", that is, shaming them publicly. Will not read again, unfortunately. ( ) Tegan and Mac attend high school together, but barely know each other. She's the girl with the odd hand, having been born with only two digits on it. Mac is the golden boy, breezing through the hallways with a smile on his face. What neither knows is how alike they are inside. When Tegan is confronted by her mother about the messages she sends to her father, she breaks, running into a snowstorm without her coat. She's hiding in the Thomas Edison Museum, a place close to her heart because her father helped save it from going under, when Mac stumbles in with a bloody hand and demands she make a 911 call. This is the start of an alternately electric and painful journey for both of them. It involves hiding from Charlie, her mom's musician boyfriend, sneaking into Mac's house after he loans his jacket to her, so he can retrieve another before they return to the museum. Then, there's kissing, Tegan's confession that threatens to undo everything. Get the book and find out what happened. You won't be disappointed. This is a great book about emotional pain, hidden truths, and coming to grips with them. It deserves a place in most libraries. no reviews | add a review
