As she argues and cajoles (and stockpiles minor munitions to clear the building) she uncovers stories about her friends’ connections with Toni – and all the reasons they refuse to skip this awesome dance. Why does everyone have to be so bullheaded! Despite everything Cassie does to change their destiny, they find themselves directly in the killer tornado’s path. In those last moments as the tornado bears down on them, Cassie must find a rock to cling to as the whole world is torn to pieces around her.Fans of Okay for Now by Gary D. Schmidt or Breadcrumbs by Anne Ursu will love this book.
