Gr 9 Up—Seniors in high school, Amelia and Sophie couldn't be more different. Amelia has moved around the United States with her mom and younger sister. While Amelia looks for stability in Morristown, she can't help but be jealous of her classmate. Sophie has lived in Morristown her entire life, has a picture-perfect family, best friend, and boyfriend. After a tennis match between Amelia and Sophie in which Sophie wins again, Amelia feels defeated. While driving home, her car breaks down. Amelia believes she is being rescued by a good patron, but instead she is taken by force. She is able to get away from her kidnapper but is met on the road by Sophie's car, which results in a terrible accident. Amelia wakes up in a hospital room in Sophie's body while Sophie remains in a coma trapped in Amelia's body. Readers will be engrossed in the mystery that surrounds her kidnapper and how it's connected to her. Amelia is a likable and relatable character. Teens will want to keep reading to find out the truth about her mother's past and if Sophie's home life is really all that it seems to be. They will be engaged with the gripping and suspenseful plot.
VERDICT This is a must-have for any library collections where thrilling characters and a heart-racing story line are popular.
