"The thrill of autobiography is in its "character." We hope to have introduced into our lives a life we've never met, a life of difference-that whatever we may think of this stranger, we emerge the better for hearing his or her story. Robert Klassen is a stranger I urge you to meet. He will not be a total stranger to many, for his books and ideas have introduced us to a new paradigm for the future. But just wait until you meet the author as a person. Survival is his challenge. How he does it is his gift to us." -Joe Taylor Ford, author of Zodiac Manager

Combining the emotional deftness of Sarah Dessen with the magical spark of New York City in wintertime, this affecting novel will inspire readers to pay closer attention to the world around them. What does it really mean to be kind . . . and why does it sometimes feel like the hardest thing in the world to do? High school senior Kendall, who just returned from a life-changing semester in Europe, and Max, who is drifting his way through a gap year before college, struggle with these questions when they witness a tragic accident in New York City during the holiday season. Racked with guilt, the two accept a dare to perform random acts of kindness to strangers. The challenge pulls these two teens, who have a history together from back home, closer and closer as they explore a vibrant city filled with other people’s stories and secrets. Kendall and Max can’t deny their growing bond, even though they both have other romantic entanglements and uncertain futures. As the clock counts down on New Year’s Eve, will they find themselves together at midnight? Jennifer Castle’s latest novel is a romantic, thought-provoking tale of human connection and how we find—and make—our place in the world.
