The Rules:
Don't deceive me. Ever. Especially using my blindness.
Especially in public.
Don't help me unless I ask. Otherwise you're just getting
in my way or bothering me.
Don't be weird. Seriously, other than having my eyes
closed all the time, I'm just like you only smarter. Parker Grant doesn't need 20/20 vision to see right through
you. That's why she created the Rules: Don't treat her any
differently just because she's blind, and never take
advantage. There will be no second chances. Just ask Scott
Kilpatrick, the boy who broke her heart. When Scott suddenly reappears in her life after being gone
for years, Parker knows there's only one way to react-shun
him so hard it hurts. She has enough on her mind already,
like trying out for the track team (that's right, her eyes
don't work but her legs still do), doling out tough-love
advice to her painfully naive classmates, and giving herself
gold stars for every day she hasn't cried since her dad's
death three months ago. But avoiding her past quickly proves
impossible, and the more Parker learns about what really
happened--both with Scott, and her dad--the more she starts
to question if things are always as they seem. Maybe, just
maybe, some Rules are meant to be broken. Combining a fiercely engaging voice with true heart, debut
author Eric Lindstrom's Not If I See You First
illuminates those blind spots that we all have in life,
whether visually impaired or not.
