If given one wish, what would yours be? It seems like such a simple question, especially for an eighteen year old. However, given that everyone in this desert town grows up knowing their one wish will be granted on their 18th birthday, and having either seen, or heard about the consequences of making that wish...well...it's not so simple a question after all.
Chelsea Sedoti takes this age-old concept and turns it into a thought provoking read! She hooks you in the first chapter by introducing the town, 17 year old "wisher" Eldon, and the countdown to his wish day. Eldon is rapidly approaching this momentous occasion, but has not decided on his wish. He's more concerned about what happens right before, and after he makes his wish.
