I would 100% read a spin off about Kate & Dave, they were everything. And each of the important side characters had their own story arcs. The parents and side characters were developed, present, and engaging.It was refreshing to see such a young character stand her ground and respect herself enough to make such a tough decision. I really appreciated how Sunny’s relationship with her previous best friend played out. This is a bit of a spoiler so I’ll try and keep it vague. I love seeing difficult topics being discussed in younger books and Ashley Herring Blake handled everything delicately and respectfully. I really appreciated the heartwarming message of this book.She was an amazing Middle Grade main character. But she never let any of it slow her down. Her best friend betrayed her secret, her mother abandoned her, her heart broke. She took everything life handed her and confronted it face on. Sunny’s character was so precious but strong.It is told from 12 year old Sunny’s perspective and follows her through and after a heart transplant when her predictable, boring life is suddenly overturned.Ĭontent Warnings: Surgery/illness, abandonment, alcoholism What I Liked But when Sunny finds a new best friend, Quinn, she starts questioning step 3. And once she has her new heart, she’s ready to become the New Sunny.
