Can you want something--or someone--so badly that it changes your destiny?
Elyse Schmidt never would have thought so, until it happened to her. When Elyse and her not-so-secret crush, Josh Harris, are the sole survivors of a plane crash, tragedy binds them together. It's as if their love story is meant to be. Everything is perfect, as perfect as it can be when you've literally fallen out of the sky and landed hard on the side of a mountain--until suddenly it isn't.
When the pieces of Elyse's life stop fitting together, what's left?You Are the Everything is a story about the fates we yearn for, the fates we choose, and the fates that are chosen for us.

"A haunting, heartbreaking puzzle box of a book." --Elana K. Arnold, author of National Book Award finalist What Girls Are Made Of
This is what dreams look like when they come true: You and Josh Harris are lying on a blanket on a football field. Above you, the sky is clear and warm and star-freckled. There's supposed to be a meteor shower tonight, which is why you are here on one of the last summer nights before school starts up, the night of the biggest meteor shower in history. It is going to be the most important night of your life. The best night of your life, so far.Author Biography
