After an accident on a playground roundabout, sisters Rose and Maya barely talk and never nicely.
Maya went off the tracks behaving badly after her leg was injured severely caused by Rose.
Rose loves gymnastics to escape home where Maya is a black cloud.
On a school trip away, Maya's moods and actions towards her sister become even more extreme and an act of rebellion see's her facing up to her reality that her leg is causing her pain again for a reason as well as Rose coming to realise what matters, speaking up about how her sister makes her feel and what she really wants to do in life, not just be biased around by her so called best friend...
There's friendship drama, missing hamsters and tense times at sea as the group gets into danger...
This was a great book detailing how a sibling fight can be very extreme and we see from both girls how they each feel from the split POV which was great and both girls were well developed characters and we could see how the event and their points of view fitted in and how they felt to everything said about them.
