Summary

"It is a book I wish could have written, but am  so much better for having read." --Julie Murphy, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Dumplin' 
 
A thought-provoking, emotionally-compelling romance featuring a girl, a  boy, and the love that has the power to save or destroy them. 
 
Seventeen year-old Jonah Daniels has lived in Verona Cove, California, his whole life, and only one thing has ever changed: his father used to be alive, and now he is not. With a mother lost in a deep bout of depression, Jonah and his five siblings struggle to keep up their home and the restaurant their dad left behind. But at the start of summer, a second change rolls in: Vivi Alexander, the new girl in town.  
 
Vivi is in love with life. Charming and unfiltered, she refuses to be held down by the medicine she's told should make her feel better. After meeting Jonah, she slides into the Daniels' household seamlessly, winning over each sibling with her imagination and gameness. But it's not long before Vivi's zest for life begins to falter. Soon her adventurousness becomes all-out danger-seeking.  
 
Through each high and low, Vivi and Jonah's love is put to the test . . . but what happens when love simply isn't enough?

Hey. We’re sure you already know the deal, but in case you don’t, there’s an alien invasion going on. Right here. Right now. We’re not talking about little green guys. And no, we’re not nuts. But this invasion is the reason we have the power to morph into any animal we touch. To acquire its DNA. To try and battle these Yeerks—that’s what the aliens call themselves. 
 
But things have gotten worse. And we need backup. A new Animorph. We’ve tried this once before and it didn’t work out. At all. We’re gonna try again. So, since you know what we’re up against, can we trust you? 
 
Are you ready to be an Animorph?
