Everything I Thought I Knew
author: Shannon Takaoka
Fiction Novel – Ages 14 and up
Seventeen-year-old Chloe
had a plan: work hard, get good grades, and attend a top-tier college. But
after she collapses during cross-country practice and is told that she needs a
new heart, all her careful preparations are laid to waste. Eight months after
her transplant, everything is different. Stuck in summer school with the
underachievers, all she wants to do now is grab her surfboard and hit the
waves—which is strange, because she wasn’t interested in surfing before her
transplant. (It doesn’t hurt that her instructor, Kai, is seriously
good-looking.) And that’s not all that’s strange. There’s also the vivid
recurring nightmare about crashing a motorcycle in a tunnel and memories of
people and places she doesn’t recognize. Is there something wrong with her head
now, too, or is there another explanation for what she’s experiencing? As she
searches for answers, and as her attraction to Kai intensifies, what she learns
will lead her to question everything she thought she knew—about life, death,
love, identity, and the true nature of reality.
