Items related to Parallel
What if you woke up to a new life every day? A collision of parallel universes leaves eighteen-year-old Abby Barnes living two lives - and sharing them with her double. Two worlds. Two guys. Two selves. Abby's real life ('Here') comes with a Yale address, a new roomie, and a birthday blind date with a super-hot lacrosse player. It's perfect. But in the parallel world ('There'), Abby is still navigating her senior year classes at high school, college applications, and her relationship with Astronomy Boy. A boy 'Here' Abby has never met.... Abby soon discovers that every time her parallel makes a new decision, Abby is forced to cope with the consequences of waking up in a life she has no memory of creating. How will she stay in control? And how does someone keep a grip on their identity when every day it might change? Both witty and insightful, this story explores the nature of self, the role of cause and effect and the defining power of choice.

Review:
Parallel is one of the most exciting and exhilarating books I've read in a long time. (...) it kept me on the balls of my feet the whole time. Shriya Samani --Children's Bookclub, Booktime
From the Back Cover:
Your path changes.
Your destiny doesn't.
Abby Barnes had a plan. The Plan. She'd go to Northwestern, major in journalism, and land a job at a national newspaper. But one tiny choice--taking a drama class her senior year of high school--changed all that. Now, on the eve of her eighteenth birthday, she is on a Hollywood movie set, wishing she could rewind her life. The next morning, she's in a dorm room, with no memory of how she got there. Overnight, it's as if her past has been rewritten. A cosmic collision of parallel universes has left Abby living an alternate version of her life. Abby must race against time to take control of her fate without losing sight of who she is, the boy who might just be her soul mate, and the destiny that's finally within reach.
