A poignant and incandescent debut that explores the bonds of community and what it really means to change
Chineloâor Nelo, as her best friend, Kate, calls herâis all about her neighbourhood, Ginger East. She loves its chill vibe, its ride-or-die sense of community and the memories she has of growing up there. Ginger East isnât what it used to be, though. After a deadly incident at the local arcade, most of Neloâs friends, except for Kate, have moved away. But as long as the two girls have each other, Neloâs good.
Then Kateâs parentsâ corner store is vandalized, leaving Nelo shaken to her core. The police and the media are quick to point fingers, and soon more of the outside world descends upon Ginger East with promises to âfix the neighbourhood.â Suddenly, Nelo finds herself in the middle of a drama that is unfolding on a national scale.
Worse yet, Kate has begun acting strange. Sheâs pushing Nelo away at the exact time they need each other most. Neloâs entire world is morphing into something she hates, and she must figure out how to get things back on track or risk losing everythingâand everyoneâshe loves.Â
