This Is Me From Now On
This is what Evie's new friend Francesca tells her, and soon enough, Evie's life has had something more like an earthquake.

Evie can't always tell if she's horrified or fascinated by everything Francesca convinces her to do, but ultimately, she comes to see friendship--and life--in a whole new light.
