This book by Joyce Oates was sooo good and I loved it.
Jenna is just a normal kid with a good life. Until once car ride changes everything. While riding in the car with her mother, Jenna sees something. A dog? A bird? She thinks nothing of it, but before she knew she was in a ditch surrounded by glass and the remains of her dead mom. Jenna only got a little bit injured. She cannot face the guilt of knowing if she could have changed the fate of her mother. Since she dislikes her father and his new family, she is forced to live with her aunt and her family. Jenna tries everything to recover from guilt she is in, therapy and even some drugs. Neither of them helped, but someone did. While on a walk, she meets Crow, a kid who goes to her school. She is annoyed by him at first, but as their relationship progresses, she finds out who he really is. He teaches her the important things in life, the things that really matter.
Another book by this author is: Freaky Green Eyes.
