Emily, feeling stifled, persuades her parents to let her attend Kennedy High School, where she joins the cross-country running team. Emily befriends Miles Silverberg, her lab partner with ADHD, as well as August Dixon, a boy on her team who can run almost as quickly as she can. Emily has had little experience interacting with people outside her family, and she struggles with social interaction in school, and especially with her feelings towards August.

Handshake Refusal: When Miles visits Emily's house, he tries to shake hands with Olivia, who shoves both her hands in her pockets and steps back. Miles says, "Good call, Olivia. I definitely have cooties. Boys are gross. Emily, I advise you to take a lesson from your sister here and steer clear."
