When We Collided

By: Emery Lord

Narrated by: Elizabeth Evans, Raviv Ullman

Earphones Award Winner (AudioFile Magazine)

Seventeen-year-old Jonah Daniels has lived in Verona Cove, California, his whole life, and only one thing has ever changed: His father used to be alive, and now he is not. With a mother lost in a deep bout of depression, Jonah and his five siblings struggle to keep up their home and the restaurant their dad left behind. But at the start of summer, a second change rolls in: Vivi Alexander, the new girl in town.

Vivi is in love with life. Charming and unfiltered, she refuses to be held down by the medicine she's told should make her feel better. After meeting Jonah, she slides into the Daniels household seamlessly, winning over each sibling with her imagination and gameness. But it's not long before Vivi's zest for life begins to falter. Soon her adventurousness becomes all-out danger seeking. Through each high and low, Vivi and Jonah's love is put to the test...but what happens when love simply isn't enough?

Review

I loved the book. Great story. I really enjoyed the chapters being read by different readers it made it so much better!

Tornado

This book had me showing so many emotions. It made me hate the characters but love them at the same time. It made me so confused and unable to comprehend the plot because of its complicated characters . But it also made me look at life a new way. To find joy in the hurt and to look at life in front of me instead of behind or in the future. So this book was an amazing tornado.

AWESOME

amazing take on a struggle that doesn't get nearly enough literature. pulse narrator's did a very good job of bringing the characters to life. and the author wrote a wonderful, and balanced story between two characters

it was a good read

it was narrated very well in the storyline was very beautiful but I still think it could have been happier. I'm not sure I would read any other of the author's books but this was a really good one.
