(3) YA After losing the eighth-grade top scholar award to her former-friend-turned-rival, Jonah, Grace decides to spend her summer training to beat him in a half marathon. As they train with (and confide in) each other, Grace discovers not only that she loves running, but also that she likes Jonah as more than a friend. Subplots -- including Grace’s efforts to please her largely absent father and a new friendship in a creative writing class -- add depth to this appealing light romance.
