About
the Book
Val and Chloe don’t fit in at their fancy
private school in Manhattan. Together, they ditch school, visit cemeteries and
thrift shops and have sleepovers during which they confide all their secret
thoughts. Lately, Val has all kinds of questions. Especially about sex. So Val
turns to the two people who have always given her the most honest answers
possible: her mother and Chloe. Unfortunately, not even Val’s mother
– an adult! –has all the answers. Val starts to think that maybe
she’s not "normal" at all. Because she has some other feelings
for Chloe. Feelings that she never expected to have. Would Chloe think those
feelings were wrong? And her biggest question of all: How do you separate loving
someone as a friend and the other kind of love – or do they cross over
sometimes?
Acclaimed author Deborah Hautzig’s 1978 novel is an
unforgettable exploration of friendship and love – and all the invisible
lines that come with them.
