This story gives you page after page of quietly powerful sentences... deep life lessons that will stay with you long after you've put this book down.

Miranda, once a typical teenage girl, now faces the unthinkable for herself and for her family. A large meteor has collided with the moon, pushing it closer to Earth, causing tidal waves, tsunamis, earthquakes, and volcanoes. The power grid is destroyed. Volcanic ash now blocks the sun. Everywhere, people are dying from freezing temperatures and starvation. This horrific situation forces Miranda to grow up quickly in an effort to save her friends and family, and she inevitably discovers what's really important in life.

鈥淒o people ever realize how precious life is? I know I never did before. There was always time. There was always a future.鈥�

鈥淚've resolved to take a moment every day for the rest of my life to appreciate what I have.鈥�

鈥淭oday... I am 17 and warm and well fed, I'm keeping this journal for myself so I can always remember life as we knew it... We're all alive. We're all healthy. These are the good times.鈥�
