(1) YA Once-promising art student Sarah has stopped going to high school. Things get weird when she encounters her own self at age twenty-three at a city bus stop, and later at age ten. Interspersed with Sarah's unfiltered first-person narration are chapters by her ER-nurse mom and flashbacks to a family vacation. King, who blurs reality, truth, violence, and creativity, shows respect for YA readers.
