(2) YA Acerbic, aimless teen Serena Velasco wants out of her "small and grimy" upstate New York factory town; so does her best friend, beautiful and dreamy Melody Grimshaw, who hopes a dance career is her ticket out. In this bleakly realistic story, Serena struggles to untangle her identity from Melody's as their futures begin to diverge. This is a raw, atmospheric depiction of a complicated relationship that unflinchingly faces hard questions about class and friendship.
