This emotional, riveting debut is head and shoulders above your standard angst-ridden Young Adult novel. Echo and Noah both have suffered family tragedy and a suitcase full of other issues that should mean they steer well clear of each other – but true love is never rational, easy or (on the surface) the right thing. A brave and powerful novel about loss, change and growing up, but most of all love.
They say be a good girl, get good grades, be popular.They know nothing about me. I can't remember the night that changed my life. The night I went from popular to loner freak. And my family are determined to keep it that way. They said therapy was supposed to help. They didn't expect Noah. Noah is the dangerous boy my parents warned me about. But the only one who'll listen. The only one who'll help me find the truth. I know every kiss, every promise, every touch is forbidden. But what if finding your destiny means breaking all the rules?
Katie McGarry was a teenager during the era of grunge and boy bands and remembers those years as the best of her life. Writing, as Katie often told her best friend, is cheaper than therapy. Pushing the Limits is her debut novel.
