Katie's best friend is her older sister, Michaela. When the family moves to rural New York from Manhattan, though, the girls drift apart; Michaela fits in at their high school while Katie feels left out. Katie's jumbled feelings about her sister and their new home are sensitively portrayed. Her road toward becoming her own person is believably fraught and often poignant.
