While I'm Falling by Laura Moriarty, To be published 8/09


Veronica is a struggling med student working as an RA in her dorm when she finds out her parents are divorcing. It hits her hard, even though it takes awhile for her to realize it. She makes some bad choices regarding house sitting and a party and even thinks her own mother is going crazy. But her mother has reasons for acting insane. The mom's world has fallen apart, too. She's broke and homeless because she can't find a place to rent that will let her keep her sick dog. So the two women are forced together into breaking some rules and develop a stronger mother-daughter relationship.
