More DescriptionBook One in a two-book series. The first generation of bussing in Michigan. Inner-city juvenile delinquency in the 1970s. The children of divorce, edging toward the punk and hip-hop subcultures. Rust Belt romance. Love, Michigan style. The story is told by fifteen-year-old Tria Stone. She's a tough girl, but she has her share of problems. With her family falling apart, she's left with a broken home in a decaying neighborhood. With the decline of the auto industry, the condition of her city mirrors her personal life. Without her father and brother, she seeks a new family, or at least a boyfriend:************ "I'd had a crush on Big Wick since forever, figured it was time to do something about it. He'd transferred to the high school last year when I started eighth grade, but I'd still see him at Someplace Else, watch him snap his wrist, thunk the foosball into the goal, rack up the pool balls, clunk the puck into the air-hockey slot, knock up the free games on Captain Fantastic."
