Product Description
by Adam Gaffen (Author)
Some friendships are so powerful, they bend space, time, and the rules of childhood itself.
Kendra Cassidy has spent centuries shaping the future, but there's one story she's never told-until now. Quantum Quirks is her sideways autobiography, a heartfelt and humorous look back at her earliest memories of Aiyana, the best friend who would one day become her wife. From their first wild adventures in the Northern Imperium of the 2080s-building impossible contraptions, outsmarting teachers, and occasionally outrunning the law-Kendra and Aiyana prove that growing up is anything but ordinary.
Told with wit, warmth, and just the right amount of rebellion, Quantum Quirks blends personal history with a richly imagined future. This coming-of-age story is perfect for middle grade readers and up, offering an accessible, engaging tale that will resonate with anyone who's ever had a best friend, dreamed of the stars, or wondered just how much trouble two independent, brilliant girls can get into. (Hint: A lot.)
For fans of The Green Glass House, A Wrinkle in Time, and The Mysterious Benedict Society, this novel is a love letter to curiosity, adventure, and the friendships that define a lifetime.
