The Journals of Kara and Jason

Life is not going well for 14-year-old Kara Bridges. Her best friend Stace has suddenly stopped talking to her for no reason, and she is having a hard time adjusting to life without her only real friend.

Luckily for Kara, she soon meets Jason, a foreign exchange student from Europe. And though Jason is more than a little awkward, he and Kara quickly form a friendship, bonding over what it's like to feel like an outsider who doesn't belong.

However, when Jason suddenly returns four years later when Kara is a senior in high school, she realizes not everything was what it seemed. Kara's worldâ€"and the way she looks at the worldâ€"is about to change forever.
