Noraâs whole world plummets faster than the Cyclone roller coaster when her cousin Riley falls into a coma that Nora thinks is her fault in this warm, big-hearted debut middle grade novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author, Doreen Cronin.
Riding the Cyclone, the world famous Coney Island rollercoaster, was supposed to be the highlight of Noraâs summer. But right after they disembark, Noraâs cousin Riley falls to the groundâ¦and doesnât get up. Nora had begged and dragged Riley onto the ride, and no matter what the doctors say, that she had a heart condition, that it could have happened at any time, Nora knows it was her fault. Then, as Riley comes out of her coma, sheâs not really Riley at all. The cousin who used to be loud and funny and unafraid now canât talk, let alone go to the bathroom by herself. No, sheâs only 10% Riley. Nora, guilt eating her up on the inside worse than a Coney Island hotdog, thinks she knows how to help. How to get 100% Riley back. But what Nora doesnât realize is that the guilt will only get worse as that percentage rises.
