(4) YA With just over twenty-four hours until an asteroid hits, homeless teens Emerson and Vince seize the moment by wandering Portland, Oregon, looking for people with regrets to solve and dreams to fulfill. In a narrative alternating poetry with prose, the "pay it forward" message is oversimplified and strained but certainly uplifting, and Emerson's attempt to repair her family relationships resonates.
