YA
Extroverted athlete Ryan and wry, socially anxious Gabby do not have much in common, except their intense, special friendship. The night before graduation, the pals count down the "top ten moments of high school." Issues such as Gabby's bisexuality and Ryan's concussions are timely, complex, and naturally integrated into this smart coming-of-age story told in dual nonlinear narratives.
