** spoiler alert ** It’s summer and Emily is going to be a senior in high school in the fall. She’s a little tired of the way things have been going – her best friend Meg, who lives right across the street, has been dating this guy Rick, and whenever they go out Emily feels like a third wheel. So, when her art teacher recommends her for a summer program in the city (Philadelphia), Emily jumps at the chance. And immediately regrets it after the first few classes make her feel like an idiot. Is she really the talentless, undifferentiated suburbanite everyone thinks she is? No. But Emily isn’t sure who she is either. She decides to stick it out after she bonds with Fiona, another student. She’s wild and passionate and bright with energy and enthusiasm and embodies “artist” in a completely different manner than Emily. Her new friends and new experiences help Emily discover her gifts and her real self and she begins to blossom and to trust her own ideas (even when they’re different from others’). It doesn’t hurt, either, that her TA, Yates, seems to admire more than just her artwork. Problems arise when Emily has to integrate all of the pieces of her selves and parts of her life – new and old – into something cohesive. Can she, does she even want to keep the old stuff? And what does that mean for her friendship with Meg? Emily is basically a blank canvas when we are first introduced, but as she is exposed to new things and people, she starts to figure out who she does and doesn’t want to be. She has hidden depths and makes some startling insights (this from the girl who thought that having a Starbucks in her town somehow put it on the map). She makes a lot of mistakes, too, but is able to learn from them. Good story of self-discovery, plus art! [I’m reading all the cool arty-girl books this month…]
