This was the perfect book at the perfect time. I couldn't even tell you why I picked it up, just that I saw it on a list and decided that I need to read it. It was about four high school students and an accident that happened after graduation their junior year of school. It is the struggle of the survives and their parents and the injured. It is a story of secrets and blame and figuring out that life is not always the way that it seems. It is a touching book with a great story. I didn't want to put it down I wanted to see where things went and who thought and knew what. I loved the way it was told in different perspectives and how you got to see the personalities and the personal choices everyone made. The last few lines stuck with me and probably will for awhile.

We would all of us persevere. We would keep going. We would movie in the only direction we could move, and that was foward.
