From Julie Murphy, the 1 New York Times bestselling author of Dumplin` & Side Effects May Vary, comes another fearless heroine, Ramona Blue, in a gorgeously evocative novel about family, friendship, & how sometimes love can be more fluid than you first think. Perfect for fans of Rainbow Rowell & Morgan Matson. Ramona was only five years old when Hurricane Katrina changed her life forever. Since then, it`s been Ramona & her family against the world. Standing over six feet tall with unmistakable blue hair, Ramona is sure of three things: she likes girls, she`s fiercely devoted to her family, & she knows she`s destined for something bigger than the trailer she calls home in Eulogy, Mississippi. But juggling multiple jobs, her flaky mom, & her well-meaning but ineffectual dad forces her to be the adult of the family. Now, with her sister, Hattie, pregnant, responsibility weighs more heavily than ever. The return of her childhood friend Freddie brings a welcome distraction. Ramona`s friendship with the former competitive swimmer picks up exactly where it left off, & soon he`s talked her into joining him for laps at the pool. But as Ramona falls in love with swimming, her feelings for Freddie begin to shift too, which is the last thing she expected. With her growing affection for Freddie making her question her sexual identity, Ramona begins to wonder if perhaps she likes girls & guys or if this new attraction is just a fluke. Either way, Ramona will discover that, for her, life & love are more fluid than they seem. ...
