From the publisher

A poignant novel in verse in which, after a life-changing accident, one girl finds her way back to her life's passion. From the Newbery Honor-winning author of Iveliz Explains It All.

A BOOKLIST BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR - SHORTLISTED FOR THE LAMBDA LITERARY AWARD

All these months of staring at the wall?
All these months of feeling weak?
It's ending--
I'm going back to fencing.
And then it'll be
like nothing ever happened.

No one knows hard work and dedication like Valentina Camacho. And Vale's thing is fencing. She's the top athlete at her fencing gym. Or she was . . . until the accident.

After months away, Vale is finally cleared to fence again, but it's much harder than before. Her body doesn't move the way it used to, and worst of all is the new number one: Myrka. When she sweeps Vale aside with her perfect form and easy smile, Vale just can't accept that. But the harder Vale fights to catch up, the more she realizes her injury isn't the only thing holding her back. If she can't leave her accident in the past, then what does she have to look forward to?

In this moving novel from the Newbery Honor-winning author of Iveliz Explains It All, one girl finds her way back to her life's passion and discovers that the sum of a person's achievements doesn't amount to the whole of them.
