Explanation To Books Push Girl

An inspiring, real, and fresh young adult novel about how life can change in an instant by Chelsie Hill, one of the stars Sundance Channel's unscripted series Push Girls, based on her own life

Kara is a high school junior who's loving life. She's popular, has a great group of friends and an amazing boyfriend, and she's a shoe-in for homecoming queen. Even though her parents can't stop fighting and her ex-boyfriend can't seem to leave her alone, Kara won't let anything get in the way of her perfect year. It's Friday night, and Kara arrives at a party, upset after hearing her parents having another one of their awful fights, and sees another girl with her hands all over her boyfriend. Furious, Kara leaves to take a drive, and, as she's crossing an intersection, a car comes out of nowhere and slams into the driver's side of Kara's car. 

When Kara wakes up, she has no memory of the night before. Where is she? Why are her parents crying? And, most importantly -- why can't she feel her legs? As Kara is forced to adjust to her new life, where her friends aren't who they seemed to be and her once-adoring boyfriend is mysteriously absent, she starts to realize that what matters in life isn't what happens to you -- it's the choices you make and the people you love.

Co-written by "Push Girls" star Chelsie Hill, whose real life closely mirrors Kara's experience, this novel will open the eyes of readers everywhere who have never met someone who lives with paralysis.

Oh, this book! I have so much love for it not to mention its co-author, my friend and fellow Bookanista, Jessica Love. I cannot wait for June 3rd, when the world will finally meet courageous, determined Kara and her fabulous friends!At first glance, Push Girl is simply an issue book. Karas been dealt an incredibly challenging hand and shes facing all sorts of struggles, struggles the average persons probably never even considered. But this novel is so much more than the issues it covers. Its a

I will try by best not to include spoilers:Push Girl by Chelsie Hill & Jessica Love is about a teen high school student named Kara. As if growing up and finding yourself is not a challenge in its self, she must learn to overcome a whole new set of challenges after a stranger impacted her life in ways she had never imagined.I personally loved this book! While I cannot relate to this character entirely. I can relate to her in a lot of ways. I think their should be more books out there like

*I received a free ARC from goodreads first reads* See my video review here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VNiIx... I wasn't really sure what to expect going into this since I'd never read anything about paralysis before but I was pleasantly surprised. Our narrator, Kara, is likable enough and I thought the way she handled her disability and other struggles was pretty realistic. She seemed whiny at times, but this is a seventeen year old girl who just lost the use of her legs, so that's

I wasn't sure if I would like this one because I can't stand issue books or dark and depressing YA contemporary books - but I'm so glad I gave this book a chance, because it wasn't either of those things. I loved Kara's voice because she actually reads like a real teenager who goes through both normal teen stuff (parents fighting, sucky boyfriends, mean girls at school), but also has to deal with life after a horrible accident that leaves her paralyzed. The book made me tear up at times (a rare

I absolutely DEVOURED this book! It was a very important story, and it really made me think, as well as opened my eyes to different perspectives. I love when that happens! The main character, Kara Moore, was very funny and witty! I also loved how the portrayal of her accident seemed very real and human, and easy to understand and relate to. I enjoyed all of the characters in this book and thought the relationships were very important as well. I didn't want it to end because I really liked Kara's

A compelling and important read full of raw, honest emotions. Kara's journey was heartbreaking at times but ultimately hopeful. I think this will have high teen appeal!

Kara's story goes from normal teenage drama to life altering in a few pages. Through the eyes of a wheelchair bound person, you learn of the physical and emotional struggles most people have never had to go through. The range of emotions Kara experiences as she deals with being paralyzed rings true for the situation. Despite the heavy subject matter, this book conveys the seriousness of Kara's new life without being overly depressing by successfully weaving in sweet, lighthearted moments
