A Heart in a Body in the World
of Deb Caletti (Goodreads Author)
Description
When everything has been taken from you, what else is there to do but run?So thatâs what Annabelle doesâshe runs from Seattle to Washington, DC, through mountain passes and suburban landscapes, from long lonely roads to college towns. Sheâs not ready to think about the why yet, just the howâmuscles burning, heart pumping, feet pounding the earth. But no matter how hard she tries, she canât outrun the tragedy from the past year, or the personâThe Takerâthat haunts her.Followed by Grandpa Ed in his RV and backed by her brother and two friends (her self-appointed publicity team), Annabelle becomes a reluctant activist as people connect her journey to the trauma from her past. Her cross-country run gains media attention and she is cheered on as she crosses state borders, and is even thrown a block party and given gifts. The support would be nice, if Annabelle could escape the guilt and the shame from what happened back home. They say it isnât her fault, but she canât feel the truth of that.Through welcome and unwelcome distractions, she just keeps running, to the destination that awaits her. There, sheâll finally face what lies behind herâthe miles and love and lossâŠand what is to come.
