YA
Sixteen-year-old Jules's baby, Zoe, is the center of her world. No one else gets it, not her mom, not her best friend, not the doctors who tell her an ectopic pregnancy can't result in a baby. Through the first-person narrative, which shifts between before and after Zoe, Lyon portrays a troubled girl from deep inside, maintaining the tight focus of Jules's distorted perspective throughout.
