English Summary/英文概要: We all know that change is a huge part of being a teen. Bodies change. Personalities change. Moods change. But what happens when the changes are, well, a little on the supernatural side?
Xenos, “X” for short, is a 17-year-old kid with a chip on his shoulder that’s almost as big as the heart he tries to hide from the world. He swaggers through his life hoping to figure out the things he wants from life. But lately, things have begun to fall apart. His wild and passionate girlfriend, Cat, is on the verge of dumping him, and he starts to realize that he might just be in love with a beautiful-but-really-strange girl named Ruby. And we haven’t even mentioned what his grades look like these days.
And then he discovers he can fly.
X in Flight is the first book in an exciting new YA trilogy from Karen Rivers.
