About this ebook
In the fall of 1997, Layla arrives in Portland, Oregon. This move is her family's sixth attempt at a fresh start. Layla copes with the turbulence by drawing inward. Working a part-time job, she meets John, an awkward and socially ostracized senior at her school. Out of his passion for science and space exploration, they form a strange sort of friendship. Layla struggles to balance the growing friendship with her ingrained habits of hiding. As she delves further into John’s strange, kind world, the contrasts to her own tumultuous life become harder to bridge. Layla must learn to confront the chaos, to trust in the friendships she's formed, and to seek her own solid ground.

My name is Alice. I'm a sometimes writer from the Pacific Northwest. I've been a voracious reader ever since middle school, and have loved this experience of finally taking this idea for a story and allowing the characters and their journey to take shape. As in life, I suppose, I find I'm drawn to hearing people's stories. In particular, I'm fascinated with those turning point stories ("Left Turn", for those of you inclined toward Dr. Who), and hearing someone reflect on that one critical decision that set the course for who they would become and the life they would ultimately lead.
