Any Second by Kevin Emerson

What happens when a boy with a haunting past and a girl with crippling anxiety share the same traumatic experience? The characters reveal this answer as they fight to keep their heads above water in the currents of their new high school.

Any Second is a beautiful story that reminds us that there is a bomb inside of each of us that could go off at any moment. The bomb is often caused by feeling like an outcast and that can often lead to catastrophic events. However, when a group of outcasts finds each other, they can keep the internal bomb from going off. The important lesson is that even though we may feel alone, we are not. There is always someone who cares about you.

I highly recommend this book, especially to teens. It is a well-written story with a beautiful plot and lesson. It is also not the typical love story where characters experience a traumatic event which ultimately brings them together to fall in love and yadda yadda yadda. That will not be found in this story, so if you're looking for something new and different you have come to the right place.

Feel free to answer the question above in the comments below. If you would like to share your thoughts and feelings you are more than welcome to do that as well. Have a great day my lovelies!
