Effie Galanos' goals for her senior year include her navigating her way through her high school that is not really wheelchair-friendly, getting into the perfect college, and getting her crush Wilder to accompany her to the prom--but by spring she is beginning to see herself entirely differently.
Effie Galanos has her heart set on a college in NYC with a major in Mass Media & Society that will set her up perfectly for her dream job in digital media. She's never been to New York, but paging through the brochure, she can picture the person she'll be there, far from the Minneapolis neighborhood where she's lived her entire life. But with her needs as a wheelchair user, is she setting her dreams too high? When she finds out that her crust, Wilder, is applying there too, it seems like one more sign from the universe that it's the right place for her. As Effie navigates her way through a year of admissions visits, senior class traditions, internal and external ableism, and a lot of firsts-- and lasts-- she starts to learn that sometimes growing up means being open to a world of possibilities you never even dreamed of. -- adapted from Goodreads info
