I love Jeff Zetner books. This one was a nice change of pace from his utterly "rip out my heart and tear it to pieces" novels that I have read previously. This is a great story about close friendships, growing up, and what it really means to be left behind and what it means to grow past what you have. I really loved Delia's journey, even having not experienced anything that she has, I can relate to that feeling of waiting for people to leave you, and I love how her storyline resolves. The backdrop of the movie horror public access sketch show was a different and fun take than I've seen before. Loved it.
