Places We've Never Been by Kasie West

Norah is super excited to be heading out on an RV trip with her mom, her older brother and her mom's good friend along with her three kids. Especially since one of those kids is Skylar, her bestie from four years before - all through elementary and part of middle school. But in the years since, Norah and Skylar have lost touch, for the most part. Still, Norah is eager to begin just where they left off.

However, when Skylar shows up, he doesn't appear to want to have anything to do with Norah, let alone resume their close friendship! Norah is confused and frustrated and not a little hurt. What happened to her fun friend that she could confide anything to? Has she really changed as much as Skylar seems to be implying?

Recommended for grades 7 and up.
