Summer Book #15

Jumping Off Swings by Jo Knowles

This book was short, but I started it right before I left for an out of town convention, so it took longer than necessary to read.

Told from the point of view of four people: Ellie, Caleb, Josh and Corrinne. Ellie and Corrinne are best friends. Ellie sleeps with Josh (among others, previously), and gets pregnant due to condom use ineptitude. Caleb has had a crush on Ellie since first grade, and Josh is a friend of his. This is the story of a high schooler getting pregnant, what she does, and how it affects those around her. It was only ok.
