The arrival of someday / Jen Malone.

Fearless and irrepressible, eighteen-year-old Amelia could see a roller derby opponent a mile away -- and that's while crouched down, bent over skates, and zooming around a track at the speed of light. What she couldn't see coming, however, was the flare-up of the rare liver disorder she was born with. Or how it would completely turn her life upside down. But it does. No more derby. No more leaving the house without her "liver phone" (the phone that may ring at some point with the news of a viable liver replacement). Maybe even no more college plans. Amelia's life freezes. And in the stillness of this new reality come the questions. What have I done with my life? What will I get to do? What does goodbye look like? And what is permanence?
