Dealyn is biding her time. She has been since the last time she tried to die (not her first), but this time she’s more determined than ever to play it out to a successful conclusion. She loves her solitude. At this school, no one really bothers her. She doesn’t talk to other people or get involved with anything or anyone. She represses any feelings she may have for others. But her solitude doesn’t last long because of three people * Chip, Kim, and Santana. Chip and Kim are Daelyn’s parents, and they walk a narrow path between obsessively keeping watch over their only child and allowing her freedom and trust. And then there’s Santana, who just won’t leave Daelyn alone after school. And the secrets*Daelyn doesn’t tell anyone about the new website she’s found called Through The Light. What a powerful book, with an intriguing ending! Peters doesn’t sugarcoat anything in this book, but shows the dangerous side of something that plays out in people’s lives everyday * bullying.
