YA
In searching for the history of her birth mother (who died in childbirth), high-school senior Maude embarks on a journey of self-discovery. She visits her best friend, now a freshman at Florida State; tries partying; seeks out multiple people from her mother's past; and falls in love. While the novel is over-cluttered, there's plenty of appeal for the high-school-to-college transition set.
