Not Anything
Carmen Rodrigues
A powerful debut novel about a girl living a not-so-glamorous life in a city that's all about glamour. It always sounds way more glamorous than it is when Susie Shannon tells people that she's from Miami. But Miami's not all sunshine and hotties. It's endless zip codes and mega high schools where, if someone lost anything-including themselves-they just might not find it again... Not that Susie ever lost herself. No way. Ever since her mom died, she made sure to keep her world safe. With no boyfriend, an increasingly MIA best friend, and a dad who couldn't pick her out of lineup to save his life, she somehow managed to stay okay. Then she met Danny Diaz. Danny's is the life that she's destined to change. At least that's what Mr. Murphy said when he begged Susie to tutor Danny. She doubts that she could change anyone's life, but what if Mr. Murphy's right? Or better yet, what if Danny is destined to change hers?

Her father seems to feel the same way, although Susie wouldn't know that as they barely talk to each other,and when they do it is very concise. Mr. Murphy is Susie's favorite teacher and he asked her to tutor one of the hottest guys in school; Danny Diaz. At first, the tutoring does not work out, but after a while they start to warm up to each other.
