Welcome to Litsy!

A cancer survivor must readjust to �normal� middle school life in this hopeful novel from the author of Star-Crossed and Truth or Dare. Norah Levy has just completed two years of treatment for leukemia and is ready to go back to the �real world� of middle school. She knows it'll be tricky�but like the Greek mythological characters she read about while she was sick, Norah�s up for any challenge. But seventh grade turns out to be trickier than she thought. Norah�s classmates don�t know what to make of her. Her best friend, Harper, tries to be there for her, but she doesn�t get it, really�and is hanging out with a new group of girls. Norah�s other good friend, Silas, is avoiding her. What�s that about, anyway? When Norah is placed with the eighth graders for math and science she meets Griffin, a cute boy who encourages her love of Greek mythology and art. And Norah decides not to tell him her secret�that she was �that girl" who had cancer. But when something happens to make secret-keeping impossible, Norah must figure out a way to share her cancer story. But how do you explain something to others that you can�t explain to yourself? Can Nora take her cue from her favorite Greek myth? And then, once she finds the words, can she move forward with a whole new �normal�?
