Extraordinary Means by Robyn Schneider is another young adult, romance novel that I am currently rereading. It is about Lane, a seventeen year-old senior in high school who gets caught by a drug-resistant new strand of tuberculosis. After he gets the disease, his parents send him off to a sanatorium named Latham House. There he is faced with being lost to the rest of the world, loneliness, and heartbreak. That is, until he meets Sadie, who he already met years before.
It's a great read by a brilliant author and if you have the opportunity to read this book, please do, as you won't regret it.
-"Where I once was, there was now an active case of TB. Everything of who I was and who I wanted to be had been evicted to make room for the disease."
Powerful quote - makes me want to read it (as well as your recommendation)!
ReplyDeleteI wasn't sure that I wanted to read it until I got to the quote - and that convinced me!
