Soccer is Emmi's life. She's one of the best players on her high school team, she goes to soccer camps, she wants to be a professional soccer player, the whole enchilada. While at a soccer competition in Maryland, though, she feels bad and blacks out. When she goes to the hospital, she finds out that she needs a heart transplant. Until then, Emmi can't go to school, she can't play soccer, and her relationships with her friends fall apart.
While reading this book, I found myself drowning in emotions and drama. I loved the way the story flowed and unfolded, I enjoyed every moment I spent reading it--even through the tragic ending.
MS, HS - ADVISABLE. Reviewer: CCH
