| Publisher Description: Bryce remembers it like it was yesterday: the scent of chlorine, the blinding crack and flash of pain, blood in the water.When she wakes up in the hospital, all Bryce can think of is her disastrous Olympic diving trial. But everything is different now. Bryce still feels seventeen, so how can her little sister be seventeen too? Life went on without her while she lay in a coma for five years: Her best friend and boyfriend have just graduated from college. Her parents barely speak. And everything she once dreamed of doing--winning a gold medal, traveling the world, falling in love--seems beyond her reach.But Bryce has changed too, in seemingly impossible ways. She knows things she shouldn't--things that happened while she was asleep, things that haven't even happened yet. During one luminous summer, as she comes to understand that her dreams have changed forever, Bryce learns to see life for what it truly is: extraordinary. |
Contributor Bio(s): Avery, Lara: - Lara Avery graduated from Macalester College in 2010. She grew up in Topeka, Kansas, but lives somewhere between St. Paul, New York, and the Internet. She highly recommends Indian chai, not owning more than you can carry, and listening to loud music. Anything but Ordinary is her first novel. Davies, Caitlin: -Caitlin Davies is a New York City-based actor and audiobook narrator. She has performed in New York and regional theaters and has studied acting at the Eugene O'Neill National Institute, the British American Drama Academy, and the Barrow Group. Always a lover of books, she decided to combine her English degree and her acting experience and took director Paul Ruben's audiobook narration class. She immediately fell in love with the medium and one week after completing the course was hired for her first audiobook. Just a few weeks later she was hired for her second. She specializes in audiobooks for teens and young adults. |
