<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>With girlfriend Erika, a full-scholarship to college, and a busy life with his tribe of close friends, high school senior Marco Suarez holds tightly to his carefully choreographed life, until Sally, his first kiss, moves back to Miami.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Perfect for fans of Adam Silvera, this stunning novel, told through the lens of a guy in love with the cosmos (and maybe two girls), explores the complicated histories that bring us together and tear us apart.</b> <p/>In the summer before eighth grade, Marco Suarez kissed his best friend Sally Blake. This was his <i>first spark</i>. <p/>And since then, whenever he's thought about that moment, he's traveled through a wormhole--of sorts--to relive those brief seconds when time sped up (or, rather, his view of time distorted) and he kissed her. <p/>And then, at the end of that year, she disappeared, leaving in that way that people sometimes leave--alive and well and somewhere out there but gone, nonetheless. She never even said why. <p/>And <i>now </i>in their senior year, Sally unexpectedly returns and Marco is shaken. Still, he holds tightly to his carefully choreographed life. A life that is full of reasons why first sparks don't matter: <p/>Reason 1: He has a girlfriend. Her name is Erika Richards.<br> Reason 2: He's leaving on a full scholarship to college.<br> Reason 3: He's busy with his friends and making money to help support his family. <p/>But as Marco navigates the final days of high school, he learns that leaving home is never easy and a <i>first spark</i> is hard to ignore.
