Sheldon's novel is a break-up story about a friendship that's run its course. High school "soul sisters and cosmic twins" Gracie and Savanna first hit a rough patch when Savanna asks Gracie to lie about her budding romance with a college boy. Sheldon's depiction of a relationship that ends "not with a bang but with a whimper" is poignant and insightful.
