After some research, I chose this book because it looked to be an interesting story about recovery from an accident.
This story was about a girl named Micky, who is recovering from a car accident. She goes about healing in a very unconventional way and it gets her in some trouble. Eventually the truth comes out, and Mickey has to deal with the reality of her situation.
