Tilt by Ellen Hopkins
Expected publication: September 11, 2012
Amazon -- Goodreads
TILT is the story of three teens inter-related through their
parents' family relationships and friendships. As their parents
pull away, caught up in their own dilemmas, the kids' worlds
tilt, through love--good and bad:
Mikayla, almost eighteen, is over-the-top in love with Dylan,
who loves her back jealously. But what happens to that love
when Mikayla gets pregnant the summer before their senior
year, and decides to keep the baby?
Shane turns sixteen that same summer, and falls hard in love
with his first boyfriend, Alex, who happens to be HIV positive.
Shane has lived for four years with his little sister's
impending death. Can he accept Alex's love, knowing his life,
too, will be shortened?
Harley is fourteen—a good girl searching for new experiences,
especially love from an older boy. She never expects to hurdle
toward self-destructive extremes in order to define who she is
and who she wants to be.
