Publisher's Summary

The sequel to the critically acclaimed Insignificant Events in the Life of a Cactus follows Aven Green as she confronts yet another challenge: high school.

"High School. Two words that struck fear into the heart of every armless middle schooler I knew. Which was me. And like two people online."

Just as Aven starts to feel comfortable in Stagecoach Pass, with her friends and schoolmates accustomed to her lack of "armage", everything changes once again. She's about to begin high school...with 2,300 new kids to stare at her. And no matter how much Aven tries to play it cool, nothing prepares her for the reality. In a year filled with confusion, humiliation, fears, loss, and just maybe love, can Aven manage to stay true to herself?

This story makes me feel like I am not alone<3

This book is a great heartwarming introduction to teen books, I couldn’t think of a single flaw if you paid me to. Listening to the main character Aven, overcome her anxiety and face her fears gives me the courage to do the same myself. This is a truly amazing book. If I’m being honest, it should be worth 30 credits❤️❤️❤️

Highly recommend

This is the best high school story I ever heard so far. It’s cool that show regular high school kids struggle through the vision of a disables person who also lives with our ableism society. I like that the author put the personality of the characters before their handicap cause people in life are people before theirs handicap. The story is really written.

FINALLY no ending with classic love story (sorry for the spoiling) like every other teenager story.

They’ve could not find better person than Karissa as a narrator, she’s the best. I’m really immersed in the story and I feel like I’m burning under the Arizona sun without special effects.

That book is really worth my Audible monthly credit hehe.
