Meredith's best friend dies suddenly the winter of her 13th birthday. In this epistolary novel (one that is told through a series of letters), Meredith writes to cope with Anjali's death. At first, her letters follow a natural progression of grief. She denies her friends death, she is angry about her friends death, and then she accepts that her friend is dead while vowing to stay as close as they were when "it was love at first sight." In the meantime, Meredith makes a new friend. She and Noah Spivak, her biggest and longest crush, start spending a lot of time together. They become friends, maybe even more than just friends, and Meredith can't believe that someone so attractive and so popular would choose her. As she learns more about Noah, Meredith learns more about herself. A very touching, moving story that is neither drawn out in its sadness, nor short in its joy.
