YA
As Emily commutes between her "practically perfect" gated suburban community and an intensive summer art program in Philadelphia, she feels trapped between two worlds: too artsy for New Jersey, not cool enough for the art school crowd. Vivian incorporates Emily's artistic viewpoint into the perceptive narration, a realistic portrayal of a girl in search of an authentic identity.
