by Mary E. Pearson
Destiny Faraday makes a point of keeping her distance from her classmates at Hedgebrook Academy. Her number-one rule: Don't get attached. But one day, unexpectedly finding a car at their disposal, Destiny and three of her classmates embark on an unauthorized road trip.
They're searching for one fair day—a day where the good guy wins and everything adds up to something just and right. Their destination: Langdon, a town that Destiny’s unsuspecting companions hope will hold simply a day of fun. But, as Destiny says, "Things are not always what they seem." Only she knows that Langdon holds far more than that—a deep secret she has never shared with anyone.
The Miles Between explores the wonder and magic of a very real world where chance, mystery, and secrets abound.
"Starred Review. Pearson mesmerizes with a heavily cryptic back story that explodes with full emotional force." - Kirkus Reviews
"Pearson skillfully separates truth from illusion and offers an uplifting book, in which grace and redemption are never left to chance." - Booklist
"Evocative of Judith Clarke's One Whole and Perfect Day, The Miles Between is every bit as poignant, but has much more youth appeal." - School Library Journal
"Pearson has written another strong novel about the difficult business of growing up, one tinged with mystery and just a touch of fantasy." - The Horn Book Review
"Mary Pearson can rip out your heart, make you think, make you laugh— then shock you with a plot twist. In The Miles Between she does all that and more. A wild ride and a stunning book." - E. Lockhart, author of The Disreputable History of Frankie Landau Banks
