You will never forget Chris and Maia., A beautiful story of first romantic love, but also the love between friends and family. VERDICT Recommend this title to fans of Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda , Eleanor & Park , or The Sun Is Also a Star ., This engaging love story effectively delves into the challenges of trust and honesty when both parties are experiencing huge transitions, and does not shy away from the consequences that can result when difficult truths become known., * "While sensitively tackling subjects of first love, acceptance and friendship, Smith expertly chronicles her characters' twin journeys of grief and coming out, as well as what it takes to move on despite seemingly permanent damage.", Amber Smith's Something Like Gravity is a tender, beautifully told story of first love and first loss and how finding the right person at the right time can be very thing that saves us. You will love Chris and Maia from the very first page of this gorgeous novel and will miss them long after you've finished., A lovely story of first love, loss and identity. This is a wonderfully written book representing voices that are desperately needed in YA literature., Personal trauma and mutual soul searching brings together a unique couple over the course of a single summer, as both are trying to find their place in the world following a life-changing experience., With Something Like Gravity , Amber Smith again shows the heart and empathy that makes her one of young adult's foremost storytellers. This is a vital and beautiful book., * "This bittersweet story of first love and identity tugs at the heartstrings in all the right ways."
