Exposed
Kimberly Marcus
from the book...
In the dim light of the darkroom, I'm alone, but not for long.
As white turns to gray, Kate is with me.
The background of the dance studio blurred, so the focus is all on her
legs extended in a perfect soaring split.
The straight line to my squiggle,
my forever-best friend.
Sixteen-year-old
Liz is Photogirl - sharp, focused and confident in what she sees through
her camera lens. Confident that she and Kate will be best friends
forever.
But everything changes in one blurry night. Suddenly,
Kate is avoiding her, and people are looking the other way when she
passes in the halls. As the aftershocks from a startling accusation rip
through Liz's world, everything she thought she knew about photography,
family, friendship and herself shifts out of focus. What happens when
the picture you see no longer makes sense? What do you do when you may
lose everything you love most?
Told in stunning, searingly raw free verse, Exposed is Kimberly Marcus's unforgettable debut.
